EXCLUSIVE! Interview With Sacha Feiner, creator of the Gremlins Mash-up Fan Film!

Gremlins online presents the long-awaited exclusive interview with the incredibly talented Sacha Feiner.
Here are two of his videos on Youtube for you to check out, including the incredible Gremlins Fan Film Mash-Up.
Without further delay, let’s get the interview started!
Q: First off, thanks for letting me interview you for Gremlins Online, Sacha. By now, the gremlins community knows your name and you are something of a Gremlins Celebrity among fans. What can you tell us about yourself?

A: First of all, thanks for your invitation. I hope my written english will be ok! I’ll briefly talk of my career:  I made graphic communication studies, and was graduated in 2005. I didn’t like it that much but I succeeded in diverting it to cinema and animation;

my graduate project was an interactive political sci-fi animated movie. After that, I made several short movies and cartoons, also working as a graphist. My first big professional work (but still personal), the one I am the most proud of today, was the “World In Progress” series, that was played before each screening at the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival in 2007 (you can watch that series on Youtube – type “sacha feiner”). After co-directing a recut trailers series last year, a very interesting editing exercise, I am now making another more personal series for 2009, but it is still in pre-production so I shouldn’t talk too much! Same thing for my first long feature, which french producers are interested in…

Stay tuned folks!

Gremlins ate my comments!

Oh no! Did Gremlins eat your comments?

Probably not. They were most likely deleted.

Lately there have been a large amount of comments that are, for the most part, spam.
Either they are so poorly written that they are unintelligible, or they are obvious trolling efforts.
Do you want your comments approved and read by the Gremlins Online community? Then follow these simple guidelines.

  • Take your time. If you have something you want others to read, ensure it is readable. The comments don’t need to be 100% grammatically accurate, but they should be written in a manner where anyone can read it, without it seeming you slammed your face into the keyboard a dozen times.
  • Don’t post unverifiable rumors. One of the reasons many posts are deleted, is that they are along the lines of “GREMLINZ 3 IS COMN OUT MY FREINDTOLD ME!” or linking to one of the many fan trailers on youtube. Once there is an official word on anything Gremlins related, I assure you, it will be posted here immediately, with sources!
  • Use Common Sense. If your post has nothing to do with the topic, or is just to rant about something non-gremlins related, don’t bother posting.

Basically it all comes down to if people can’t put the effort into following these simple guidelines, then we won’t put the effort into reading their posts.

That said, there have been a lot of fantastic posts that the entire community benefits from, and if this trend continues, we will definitely see a message board in the near future!

Do you hear what I hear, brother?!

Heyas all!
Time for the first not 100% gremliny post that some of you have been excited about, while the rest of you are busy finding ways to ban me from the internet for not posting gremlins stuffs 24/7.

Gremlins has always been my number one passion throughout my life, and when I was young, back before the interwebs were what they are today, I wanted one book more than any.novel

The Gremlins Novelization by George Gipe.
To me, this was the bible of all Gremlins knowledge. With it, the secrets of the creatures that occupied a huge portion of my   mind at all times would be unlocked.  I feverishly searched the book out, as feverishly a 5 or 6 year old could. This is where  the back story comes in.

My parents would make semi-regular trips up to North Fon Du Lac, Wisconsin to see my Uncle Richie his family. This was always exciting for me, since my cousins, Richie and Tony, were older than me by about 6-7 years. This meant one thing, and one thing only.

They had the cool toys & I could play with them.

Gremlins for Christmas & 25th Anniversary Rumors!

Heyas all!

First off, for those of you who follow the time honored Gremlins Online tradition of watching Gremlins every year right around christmas time, but haven’t broken down and purchased your very own Gremlins Special Edition DVD, Gremlins is airing on AMC pretty regularly through the holidays. Surprisingly, it is the unedited version with the complete microwave, blender and fireplace sequences!

If you have cable, be sure to check it out at the following upcoming  showtimes:

Sun Dec 28 @ 6:30AM | 5:30C
Mon Dec 29 @ 1AM | 12C
Mon Dec 29 @ 7:30AM | 6:30C

I have also gotten word that there is supposed to be a new dvd release of Gremlins with some all-new special features in 2009. This would coincide with the 25th anniversary of the original film, so hopefully Warner Bros will go all out for this one and give us a version that has  the deleted scenes included in the flow of the film! More updates as I discover more!
