Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Gremlins 2: The New Batch is a fun American comedy-horror movie from 1990. It's about tiny, mischievous creatures called gremlins that cause a lot of trouble in a big office building. This movie is the sequel to the popular film Gremlins.

The story follows the gremlins as they attack people in a tall building. Things get wild when an electric gremlin uses its powers to shock the other gremlins, getting them wet and causing them to explode! But one female gremlin survives and even gets married later on.

The movie stars Phoebe Cates as Kate Beringer, Howie Mandel as the voice of Gizmo (the cute, furry creature), and Julia Sweeney as Peggy.
