#6 - Ghoulies (1985)
Ghoulies (1985)
A young man inherits a mansion from his family and decides to move in with his girlfriend, only to become possessed or something and start performing satanic rituals. These rituals mostly just summon a bunch of little hand puppets (I mean, monsters) and one time a pair of dwarves, who "do the master's bidding", whatever that means. The plot is dumb. Actually, the whole movie is dumb, with the exception of like two scenes that are pretty good (the vampire/clown doll thing was creepy I guess).
I'd also like to say that the poster is incredibly misleading... the little dudes never wear clothes in the movie, nor do they pop out of toilets to grab you (there is a 3 second shot of one popping out of a toilet, but he doesn't actually do anything and no one is there to be scared by him). They were obviously trying to capitalize on the success of Gremlins, and while the film was successful at the box office, it totally failed to capture anything that made Gremlins a good movie.
