Hobgoblins
copyright 1987
With the possible exception of the first two Critters flicks, Gremlins knockoffs are inherently bad.   Ghoulies, Munchies, and now Hobgoblins.


This movie has everything that sucked about the 80's.  Bad clothes, bad hair, the crappiest music I've ever heard, and annoying as hell people.

The story is about a bunch of puppets escaping a movie studio lot.  They have the power to let people live out their fantasies which end in death.  At least they were supposed to die, but never did....which really pissed me off. 

This movie is some of the dumbest shit in cinematic history.  For example, we see two characters fighting with rakes for over 5 excruciating minutes, a nerdy guy who's into phone sex and also wears "awesome" 80's 
RED PANTS, a flamboyantly gay night club emcee, an old guy driving around on a golf cart and a bar fight that consists of people tipping over their tables again and again.

Anyway, a group of teenagers tries to stop the stuffed animals and they eventually go back to the studio vault themselves and get blow'd up.

It was a painful experience for myself, and I don't recommend anyone else subjecting themselves to it.
0 out of 5.  This one really hurts to watch.  I'd rather have my testicles shaved by a rabid baboon.
