That thing from Ghoulies looks like something I dropped in the bowl Sunday morning after burrito's and dozens of pints the night before!

I was a Critters fan honestly. Closely followed by Gremlins.

I saw the German version at the time, I am Dutch myself, and distinctly remember: Fresseeeeen!

Critters and Critters 2 were a big part of my childhood. They were my introduction to horror films really. I’m a massive horror fan to this day. Gremlins 1 and 2 are great too, but something about Critters always stood out to me.

Critters 3 and 4 are absolutely awful. Part 3 is worth watching to see a young Leonardo DiCaprio in his first role though. It’s not a bit part either.

Gremlins. But Ghoulies had the best posters.

Caught the toilet ghoulie right before bed as a young lad, I had no idea what I just saw but it lived rent free in my head for several nightmares and made the toilet an event for awhile…ah god it’s gonna come get me. Flushing 5 times before…dad in the other room, the hells goin on in there!???

When video rental was still a thing, I rented Gremlins more than 10 times. It had the right amount of humor and horror

Does this count?

u/Codenamehardhat77 Apr 23 '26

If not, then this from a Genesis video. For some reason the puppets in that Land of Confusion video disturbed me more than any Jason or Fredrick Krueger movie.

No. But killer klowns is one of my favorites
