In 2001 we shot a video of the Gremlins Invasion attraction, including pre-show, at Warner Brothers Movie world in Germany on DV tape in SD interlaced quality. A lot of folks asked us to post this video on YouTube, because the ride is now extinct. We post this video in smaller clips and one long version. The reason for this is the low quality of the footage, especially the pre-show, and us wanting to tweak it as much as possible before posting. This is the second clip of the pre-show on the set of the TV show Alf. Gremlin Invasion (also known as The Great Gremlin Adventure) was an amusement park ride featured in two Warner Brothers Movie World amusement parks (located in Australia and Germany). The rides opened on June 3, 1991 in Australia and Germany. The Great Gremlins Adventure starts harmlessly. Seated in a comfortable screening room, you'll see some of Hollywood's funniest out-takes/bloopers -- the bits that didn't make it onto the silver screen, hosted by none other than ALF himself. But suddenly something goes wrong and everyone must evacuate! Gremlins have taken over! Prepare for an escape through the backroom film vaults. But watch out! There are Gremlins on the loose! ALF tells you that you can escape through the WB film archives and Gizmo is there to help you get out of this nightmare. As you ride through the archives, the gremlins are all over the place some spoofing scenes from Warner Bros. movies, others just causing general gremliny chaos. Things keep getting worse, the gremlins start destroying the original prints of Warner Bros. most famous films, and the legendary sets from our favorite movies! Things look bleak, but just when you think you are forever trapped by the little green beasties, Gizmo and ALF find a "Shocking" way to eliminate the Gremlins and save the day! This ride is based on Gremlins, a 1984 American horror comedy film directed by Joe Dante, released by Warner Bros. The film is about a young man who receives a strange creature called a Mogwai as a pet, which then spawns other creatures who transform into small, destructive, evil monsters. This story was continued with a sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch, released in 1990. Unlike the lighter sequel, the original Gremlins opts for more black comedy, which is balanced against a Christmas-time setting. Both films were the center of large merchandising campaigns. Steven Spielberg was the film's executive producer and the screenplay was written by Chris Columbus. The film stars Zach Galligan and Phoebe Cates, with Howie Mandel providing the voice of Gizmo, the main mogwai character. Gremlins was a commercial success and received positive reviews from critics. However, the film was also heavily criticized for some of its more violent sequences. In response to this and to similar complaints about Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Spielberg suggested that the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) alter its rating system, which it did within two months of the film's release. ALF is an American science fiction/fantasy sitcom that aired on NBC from September 22, 1986 to March 24, 1990. The title character is Gordon Shumway, a friendly extraterrestrial nicknamed ALF (an acronym for Alien Life Form), who crash lands in the garage of the suburban middle-class Tanner family. The series stars Max Wright as father Willie Tanner, Anne Schedeen as mother Kate Tanner, and Andrea Elson and Benji Gregory as their children, Lynn and Brian Tanner. ALF was performed by puppeteer/creator Paul Fusco. ALF occasionaly attempts to catch Lucky the cat with the intention of making the pet a meal, as cats are the equivalent of cattle on his home planet Melmac. This film was shot in summer 2001 on a Sony DV camera. It's not one of our best videos, but it gives a good impression of what the ride was all about. We've de-interlaced the footage, upscaled it to HD and added many tweaks. http://twitter.com/WackyWeazle http://facebook.com/wacky.weazle https://plus.google.com/106514532726205063691 Visit http://www.MotionPictureArt.com for all your original movie posters and more.
