<p>CinePunked returns to the <em>Gremlins </em>franchise with <em>Gremlins 2: The New Batch</em>. Sequels are often seen as the poorer siblings, does <em>Gremlins 2</em> follow that trend, or does it do something else? How did merchandising impact the film? And do we need or want a <em>Gremlins 3</em>?</p>
<p>With Robert JE Simpson and Neil Sedgewick
