The Gremlins Controversy
In the 1984 horror film “Gremlins,” Billy’s dad gets him a pet from China with a list of instructions on how to care for it. One of the most interesting on the list is to not let them near water or give them water to drink. But of course, Billy breaks the rule and the pet starts spawning all sorts of creatures. Many movie fans recall the villainous Gremlin Spike, but the actual name of the creature was Stripe, not Spike.
