THE GOONIES (PG)

The Goonies are a group of friends living in a village which will soon be demolished. Setting out to find a way of saving their homes, The Goonies find a treasure map and they set off in search for the treasure of the legendary pirate One-Eyed Willy – located beneath an abandoned restaurant. Joined by a deformed gentle giant named Sloth, The Goonies embark on a great adventure through an underground maze filled with traps and skeletons, where they are pursued by Sloth’s mother, thief Momma Fratelli and his brothers Jake and Francis.

GREMLINS (PG)

Billy’s dotty dad discovers a Mogwai (mog-why) and buys it as a Christmas present. Billy loves his sweet furry pet Gizmo,but disregards the basic rules of owning a Mogwai. Gizmo spawns nasty offspring, and the new creatures go wild. Billy and his mum are forced to destroy the little suckers. The mayhem looks under control until Spike, the malicious Gremlin leader, hops into the school pool and multiplies exponentially. Soon the whole town is under attack! So, when your washing machine blows up or your TV goes on the fritz, before you call the repair man, turn on all the lights and look under all the beds ‘cause there just might be a gremlin in your house!
