Ep. 391: Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990) - Shocktober 9

Producer's Note: Sorry for the delay, but the unorthodox OKC ice storm left me without power and internet for a few days. Also, the file seemed to have some issues, so I've had to salvage it as best I can. We apologize for the mangled nature, but it feels true to the spirit of the Gremlins franchise.

Shocktober 9 comes to a close this week. We're finally leaving Dalton's House of Horrors, but not before squaring off against that adorable Magwai Gizmo and his slimy offspring. That's right, after 8 years, we've returned to the world of Gremlins. This week, we're discussing The Gremlins 2: The New Batch in all its anarchic glory. We take a deep dive into post modern theory this week as we dissect the Loony Tunes anarchy that appears on screen in this unhinged sequel that's ahead of its time in many ways.
