Gremlins is listed as a horror comedy for good reason. At first, a regular Gremlin is cute and could very well be what was behind the inspiration of toys like the Furby. However, when these little ones have a snack after midnight, they turn into scary mischievous beings.

The horror comedy genre also happens to be super popular today. Films like Scary Movie and Cabin In The Woods takes the horror factor and dissolves it with an influx of comedy. Fans always turn out for these films making it a strong possibility that a Gremlins remake would be able to hold its own.
