While not explicitly a traditional ‘Christmas’ movie, Gremlins is set around the Christmas period. Randall Peltzer (Hoyt Axton) visits an antique store, searching for a Christmas gift for his son, Billy (Zach Galligan). He encounters a mysterious creature known as a mogwai (‘devil’ in Cantonese) and gives it the name Gizmo. When Randall gifts the mogwai to Billy, he warns him not to expose it to sunlight, water, or feed it after midnight. Billy neglects these rules and a group of troublesome reptilians called gremlins spawn from Gizmo.
