Chris Columbus wrote this 1984 horror comedy, and Joe Dante directed it, and both of them had a blast. Gizmo and his cuddly friends are very cute, but only if you obey the rules – which are largely ignored. Stars include Phoebe Cates, Zach Galligan, Corey Feldman, and some noteworthy supporting players. The character named “Mr. Jones” is played by Chuck Jones, animator extraordinare – and Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul fans can watch for a younger Jonathan Banks, who plays “Deputy Brent.”
