Critters is better

Critters is better than Gremlins hands down. After the green Gremlins are born the movie gets so over the top ridiculous that I lost interest fast.

In Critters they balance the comedy and horror much more effectively and they don't beg for laughs. If you haven't seen Critters check it out. Its a more entertaining, funnier scarier alternative to this.

And neither is as good as Tremors.

Love both, but prefer Gremlins.

nope, critters don't have that special something.
gremlins are much better, this is cult film in many ways.

Critters is great fun. A good 'B movie' but Gremlins is a good bit better.
