      Which Gremlin Are You?

      Which Gremlin Are You?
      Movies

      By BrainFall Staff - Updated: April 2, 2024

      You ate after midnight?! Oh boy! Please stay away from water, avoid the sun at all costs, and take this quiz to find out which Gremlin you are!

      Gremlins Movie

      This 1984 hit film might not be scary anymore, but it's still a true classic! The Gremlins film series have spawn countless parodies, sequels, and imitators. But even on Blu-Ray the same advice applies: don't get them wet!

      Which Gremlin Are You?

      Have you ever felt a bit mischievous or downright chaotic and wondered which creature of the night you’d be? Well, buckle up, because we've got just the thing to satisfy your curiosity! In the world of 'Gremlins,' there's a variety of these little guys, each with its own unique... let's call it charm. So, how about we discover our inner Gremlin together? It's a journey of self-discovery that's a little less 'eat, pray, love' and a little more 'cackle, prank, wreak havoc.'

      Which Gremlin Are You?

      Okay, let's set the scene – it's a regular night, you've just fed your mystical pet after midnight (rookie mistake), and now you're in for a wild ride. Are you the leader of the pack with a mohawk that puts punk rockers to shame? Or maybe you're the type to dance in a bar wearing suspenders? It's time to embrace that inner voice that whispers, "Maybe causing a little chaos isn’t that bad," and get ready for some laughs.

      Together at BrainFall, we'll embark on this hilariously unorthodox quiz that can help us unveil which Gremlin aligns with our vibe. No need to break out the popcorn (unless you're into that sort of snack during a quiz), just bring along your love for all things Gremlin, and let's find out who in the horde we truly are!

      Gremlins 101

      Before we dive into finding out which Gremlin matches your sparkling personality, let’s get the basics down pat. From cuddly to chaos, we'll cover the how-tos of Mogwai care and the who's who of Gremlins.

      Mogwai to Gremlin: The Transformation

      First off, remember those fluffy Mogwai lookalikes in your cereal box? Cute, but don't let them fool you. These little critters have quite the surprise waiting inside. If you splash a Mogwai with water, you're in for a multiplication mayhem. They pop out new furry friends faster than popcorn. But the real kicker comes when you mess up their dinner schedule. Feed them after midnight and those adorable Mogwai go full-on metamorphosis, spinning cocoons faster than you can say, "Uh-oh." When they emerge, it's not a butterfly—think more along the lines of destructive, mischievous Gremlins.

      Rule of Three: Bright Light, Water, and Feeding After Midnight

      Rules are such a drag, but when you're dealing with Mogwai and Gremlins, they're your BFFs. Rule one: Bright light? They hate it—especially sunlight, which can be deadly. Keep those shades down! Rule two: Keep them away from water. Unless you want a Mogwai baby boom, avoid spills. Finally, the cardinal rule, do not—I repeat, do not—feed Mogwai after midnight unless you want to unleash their inner Gremlin. Bad news for you, hilarity and a dash of terror ensue.

      Stripe vs. Gizmo: Character Showdown

      Let's face it; between Stripe and Gizmo, we all have a favorite. Stripe is the mohawk-sporting, chaos-loving Gremlin who's got a knack for trouble. If there's a button to push or a lever to pull, Stripe's on it. Then, there's Gizmo, the sweetheart Mogwai with a face so cute, it belongs on a lunchbox. But don't let that angelic demeanor fool you; when push comes to shove, he's got a few tricks up his sleeve to save the day from... well, from his less-than-angelic Gremlin counterparts.

      Cultural Impact and Legacy

      Before we dive into which mischievous creature you might be, let's take a stroll through the mayhem and merriment that Gremlins have unleashed on our culture.

      From the Big Screen to Christmas Tradition

      When Gremlins burst onto the scene in 1984, directed by the imaginative Joe Dante and produced by the legendary Steven Spielberg, it did more than just entertain. This movie transformed the cute, yet chaotic critters into an unorthodox symbol of Christmas. It's a testament to the film's impact that certain folks can't trim their tree without reminiscing about the pandemonium in Kingston Falls.

      Hollywood's Intriguing Mogwai: The Making of a Movie Icon

      From Gizmo's endearing eyes to Stripe's menacing mohawk—these creatures became the darlings of Hollywood, setting a benchmark for black comedy. Gizmo, voiced by none other than Michael Winslow (yes, that guy from Police Academy), morphed into a cultural icon synonymous with cuteness and Christmas mishaps. Meanwhile, the team behind the Gremlins—like effects maestro Chris Walas and composer Jerry Goldsmith—rivaled the likes of Tim Burton's wacky worlds.

      Critics and Audiences: The Reception Kaleidoscope

      Gremlins sliced through the critics' spectrum like a microwave oven through, well, a mischief-maker. Roger Ebert gave it a thumbs up for the wicked blend of folklore and comedy, while audiences were split. Kids of the '80s found a new obsession, some parents petitioned for the creation of the PG-13 rating, and yet everyone kept talking about that infamous Christmas Eve scene with Phoebe Cates. Talk about a holiday feast for thought!

      Spawning Sequels and Speculations on Reboots

      Sure enough, Gremlins inspired a sequel crazier than a bunch of gremlins guzzling soda—Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Fast-forward to the present, and there's buzz about a potential reboot or animated series. It's like every Christmas present we've ever wanted—provided it doesn't come with any of those pesky three rules. And let's face it, we're all curious how a CGI spin could either make us giddy with nostalgia or have us yearning for the puppet days of Chris Columbus's original spec script.
