Chris & Kelsey are self-referential and silly. Don't think too hard about it.\n\nThe Classic Film: Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990)\n"The Gremlins are back, and this time, they've taken control of a New York City media mogul's high-tech skyscraper\u201d (IMDb.com). Gremlins 2 was a too-late sequel to a pop culture phenomenon that didn't feel like the original at all. But if you can get over that, it sure is a lot of stupid fun.\n\nThe Modern Film: The Final Girls (2015)\n"A young woman grieving the loss of her mother, a famous scream queen from the 1980s, finds herself pulled into the world of her mom's most famous movie. Reunited, the women must fight off the film's maniacal killer\u201d (IMDb.com). The Final Girls is a love letter to\u2014not a takedown of\u2014slasher films from the 80s. The logic may not work, but who cares, really?\n\nAudio Sources:\n"Bette Davis Eyes" written by Donna Weiss & Jackie DeShannon and performed by Kim Carnes\n"Cherry Pie" written by Jani Lane and performed by Warrant\n"The Final Girls" (2015) produced by Groundswell Productions\n"Gremlins" produced by Warner Bros. & Amblin Entertainment\n"Gremlins 2: The New Batch" produced by Warner Bros. & Amblin Entertainment\n"Hollywood Sequel Doctor" (Key and Peele S05E08) produced by Monkeypaw Productions, et al.\n"Joker" (2019) produced by Warner Bros., et al.\n"Looper" (2012) produced by TriStar Pictures, et al.\n"My Name is Bruce" produced by Dark Horse Entertainment & Image Entertainment\n"Spaceballs" produced by Brooksfilms & Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
