A great little fan made clip of Gremlins taking over a PVR and invading the movies themselves. When the screen glitches, just keep watching it. You will see that its part of the video.

This is made of awesome. I miss the Gremlins.

    @bruce

    he obviously used a computer to make it.

    why is that lame?

    @David.. PVR is a “personal Video Recorder” It is a digital recorder you can use to tape shows and movies to a hard drive to watch later

    @Miles, I think he meant that it was “lame” is that as cool as the effects are, it isn’t perfect.

    Its still cool.

    The only thing lacking about this clip is the gremlin voices.

    I thought the special effects were fantastic. I was convinced he was using puppets at first, and it became all the more awesome when he made one of them look stop-motion for “20000 Fathoms.” Probably one of the most well-done fan-made movies I’ve ever seen.

    LOL I’ve never walked out on a movie, but incidentally when I was 11 I went to Raiders with another kid and his mom. They walked out afte the boulder! My mom and I stayed for the whole thing.

    That was awesome. I thought the Gremlins were great. The movies were really goo. They were the first widely recognized funny monsters, and it worked. Unlike Freddy in FVJ. How do you walk out on Raiders of the Lost Ark!?! I certaintly hope that woman regrets it to this day. Who knows. Maybe we’ll see a Gremlins 3 sometime in the future. Any thoughts?

    I checked youtube and the guy who made this is a 24 year old belgium who has a massive gremlins collection. It’s now his dream to be able to do special effects for gremlins 3, if one ever happens. He made puppets and used cgi to make these videos. But loved the video, I especially thought the indiana jones gremlin wearing the gizmo mask was a nice touch. Would be nice to see more videos from him, like maybe gremlins in the star wars trilogy.

    I do VFX as a hobby myself
    and all i can say is that this video is really cool

    thats a lot of object tracking and cam tracking work, not to speak of the big amount of rotoscoping work e.g. the indy scene…. do fill a shot with gremlins you have to rotoscope indy frame by frame…. my goodness
    and a great compositing ;-)

    really cool ;-)

    That was actually very impressive. Who ever produced that it had to cost them some cash. I loved GREMLINS. Seen it 10 times in a theater. Sequel is really good also! WHAT ever happened to Joe Dante? He’s a great talent!

    I didn’t see it on AOTS. I tripped over it online.

    It is the type of thing they would feature on their YouTube segment.

    The whole thing cost him two months work and 2500 euros. That’s one dedicated fan.
    here’s the making of video

    That did reek of awesomeness. Gremlins and Ghostbusters - my 2 favorite movies when I was a kid - when in the name of Holy Moses are we gonna see sequels to these 2 flicks. I mean I know that they’re coming out with the Ghostbusters video game, but come on already.

    Quality stuff. This guy is really talented. I think we’ll see more greatness from him in the future.
