Featured review
Ghoulies was a crazy adventure which I would only admit to watching after I'd had a load of alcohol to drink. It's rubbish...but it's good rubbish nonetheless.
I won't pretend that I've ever understood the plot. But who needs a plot when you've got crazy little creatures running around causing havoc?
The movie is very 1980's and suited that era very well. Most of the people I've spoke to have had good things to say about it. It is one of those films where you leave your brain at the door before watching it. It was quite funny but scary in parts (there's this evil clown doll which gave me the creeps).
All in all, I would recommend Ghoulies to those who don't take life too seriously. If you liked Gremlins, you'll like Ghoulies.
