Ghoulies

About This Movie

So, Ghoulies is this quirky mix of comedy, fantasy, and horror that comes off more playful than sinister. Directed by Luca Bercovici, it’s got a unique charm with its practical effects, especially those little green creatures that pop out of toilets. The pacing feels a bit uneven, but it contributes to its oddball vibe. You get this young couple moving into an old mansion, and there’s definitely a campy energy at play. The performances are pretty over-the-top, which adds to the fun. It’s not your usual demon possession flick; instead, it embraces its silliness, making it a curious watch for genre enthusiasts. Definitely worth checking out for the effects and the atmosphere it creates.

Released by Paramount Pictures in 1985. · Features practical effects designed by John Carl Buechler. · Notable for its mix of horror and humor. · Spawned several sequels, reflecting its cult status.
