Ndikudziwa zomwe mukuganiza… ”Kodi munthu ameneyu anali ndi ubwana wake?” Ndikupita kukatenga china chowopsa pakabale kanga koyamba Chakumapeto kwa Phwandolo, koma, dammit, ndinadzimva kuti ndili ndi udindo woti ndiyang'ane a Joe Dante Gremlins kuchoka mndandanda wanga.

Gremlins Ndiwo mtundu wamakanema oopsa pachipata omwe omvera angakumbukire mwachimwemwe ngati imodzi mwazoyambira zawo zamtunduwu. Ndimaganiza ngati sindingathe kuyamika nditakula. Apanso, kanema wabwino safuna kukhudzika kuti mugwire. Ndidatulukira mu disc (Pepani, palibe VHS), ndipo zowonekera pazenera zidawoneka ndi nyimbo yapa zovinira ya Jerry Goldsmith yomwe imasewera kumbuyo. Ndidadziwa kuti ndanyamuka ulendo wamtchire.

Gremlins imatsegulidwa mosayembekezereka ngati kanema wa ofufuza za neo-noir, wathunthu ndi mawu ofotokozera kuchokera kwa munthu wovala fedora yemwe ali ndi nkhani yosaneneka yoti anene. Woyambitsa Randall Peltzer apeza cholengedwa chachilendo chotchedwa Mogwai m'sitolo yodabwitsa yakumbuyo, ndipo amagula ngati mphatso yodabwitsa ya Khrisimasi kwa mwana wake wamwamuna wachinyamata Billy. Randall akuchenjeza Billy kuti atsatire malamulo atatu osavuta: Lisunthireni dzuwa, lisalowe m'madzi, ndipo musalidyetse pakati pausiku. Sindingadikire kuti adule zonse zitatu.

Zinali zodabwitsa kuti banja lonse silinali lodziwika bwino kuti abambo adabweretsa kunyumba nyama zosadziwika, zopambana Mphotho ya Nobel, ndikuchita ngati anali Pomeranian. Koma, Hei, anthu anali kubweretsa kunyumba mitundu yonse ya zolengedwa zachilendo m'ma 80. Sipanatenge nthawi kuti zinthu zisokonezeke, ndipo mzindawu wazunguliridwa ndi mazana a zipolopolo zoyipa. Mayi akadangoyitanitsa akuluakulu atatulukira zikwa khumi ndi zisanu m'chipinda chake, m'malo mobwerera pansi ndikuphika makeke a Khrisimasi.

Tikukumana ndi anthu ena am'mizinda omwe sanakayikire zomwe zidachitika koyamba mufilimuyi. Olemba ambiri ali ndi mphotho yandakatulo, monga wachisoni, mayi wachikulire mayi Deagle, yemwe amalandila chiwonetsero choseketsa (zambiri pambuyo pake). Komabe, ma arcs ena amaponyedwa panjira. Woyang'anira wachinyamata wa Billy, Gerald Hopkins akupikisana chifukwa chofuna kukondana ndi Billy. Gerald amasowa mwanjira ina mufilimuyo, koma sizowononga chiwembu chonse. Kate nayenso mwamwayi sanasanduke mtsikana wamavuto. Ngakhale adasowa mwayi wamakhalidwe, Gremlins sizimavutitsa kulowa m'matumba ambiri pomwe liwiro liyamba.

Kanemayo amawonetsedwa ngati cholengedwa cha kanema wa B chomwe chimakwezedwa ndi kuphedwa kosangalatsa. Zojambula zokongola za matte zimagwiritsidwa ntchito kuwombera mlengalenga tawuni yaying'onoyo, pomwe ambiri mwa ma seti amawoneka ngati achikale ku Hollywood. Zotsatira zake zili ndi zambiri zanzeru zomwe zingasokoneze malingaliro a anthu, ngakhale lero.

Ogwira ntchitowa adatulutsa mayimidwe onse ndi zikoko zazing'ono, akumeta ubweya, komanso, makanema ojambula pamanja odabwitsa. Ngakhale nditakula kwambiri, ndidapeza Gizmo wokongola kwambiri. Ma gremlins obisalira m'malo osiyanasiyana komanso ma crannies nthawi zambiri ankatsagana ndi magetsi obiriwira obiriwira kapena ofiira komanso nkhungu yoyenda. Zotsatira zoyipa zakufa kwa Stripe zikufanana ndi zochitika zomaliza mu Oipa Akufa (1981) m'njira yabwino kwambiri. Zonsezi zazing'ono zimabweretsa kanema wamoyo ndi zokongola zosaneneka.

Mulingo wachisokonezo mu Gremlins ndi waulemerero. Wina angayembekezere kanemayo kukhala wocheperako chifukwa chakuletsa bajeti, koma onse adatuluka. A gremlins akulira m'matawuni okongola amaonetsa umunthu wawo wopulupudza, komanso luso la ogwira ntchito m'mafilimu. Sikuti anali kungowononga tawuniyi, anali kusangalala kuchita izi.

Dante amatilola kuti titenge mphindi zochepa kuti tilowe mu chisokonezo chomwe ma gremlins amayambitsa mu bala ndi zisudzo. Kamera imayang'ana mozungulira kuti iwawonetse akusunthira kuchokera kumafilimu akumwamba, kusewera makadi, kumwa zakumwa, ndi mitundu ina yonse yamisala yopenga. Chimodzi mwazosangalatsa kwambiri ndikuti akafika pakhomo la Akazi a Deagle atavala zovala zovekerera, ndikukhazikitsa crotchety, chomenyera chakale kuchokera pazenera lake lachiwiri kudzera pa mpando wonyamula masitepe. Ndinali ndikugubuduzika ndi kuseka.

Gremlins ndi kusakanikirana kwabwino kwaulendo wopepuka wa 80, ndikutulutsa kanyumba kakang'ono. Kanemayo akadakhala tsoka lowopsa ngati akanaphedwa bwino. M'malo mwake zidakhala zachikale ndi china chake kwa aliyense. Omvera amakono nthawi zambiri amayesa kusankha ngati kanema amakonda Halloween (1978) akadali chowopsya ndi miyezo yamasiku ano. Gremlins, komano, sichinayenera kukhala chowopsya. Zinayenera kukhala zosangalatsa, zokhala ndi zotsatira zabwino. Mwakutero, imagwirabe mwamtheradi.
