How to watch Gremlins this Christmas: Where to watch on TV and online

If you’re lining up your Christmas watch-list there’s a good chance that this festive ‘80s classic will be on there.

The comedy-horror has legions of fans, thanks to its menacing yet rubbery antagonists and an irritatingly catchy score. But is it a Christmas film? Well it has snow, festive-coloured lights and a weirdly dark storyline featuring a dead Santa in a chimney – so we’re voting yes.

The film follows the story of a young man who is gifted an unusual pet for Christmas. When he fails to follow strict care and feeding instructions, he accidentally unleashes a horde of chaotic, green-coloured Gremlins on his little town, which he struggles to contain.
