Gremlin Invasion

What is Gremlin Invasion?
That is a question that has been asked by gremlins fans worldwide.
Gremlins Invasion is a ride at Warner Brothers Movie World Germany, and finding information on it has been something of a challenge.
Thankfully there have recently been some discoveries on various details, and here we will do our best to share that with you.


This section of Gremlins Online is still under extensive construction, so check back often to see what develops!

Ride Summary

The ride begins with you and your fellow visitors filing into a special car to watch some outakes from various Warner Bros films, hosted by none other than ALF himself.

Your theatrical experience is cut short, however, as the gremlins are on the loose! ALF tells you that you can escape through the WB film archives and Gizmo is here 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!

Here it is folks, the big one, the full ride including the bloopers reel that gets “interrupted” by gremlins. The ride takes a lot of liberties with the gremlins lore, but it is awesome to see in it’s full glory! Thanks to Roy for sending this in!

Thanks to Je-B who translated ALF from the beginning of the video: “I’ll now take you to a safe place through the film archive. Please don’t touch the film reels. These are the only surviving copies of 6000 Warner Bros. films.”

Behind The Scenes Info

The ride was originally located in two WB Movie World theme parks, Germany and Australia, opening in 1996 and 1991, respectively. The Australian ride was removed to make way for a Scooby-Doo ride based off of the film in mid 2001.

Official Info from Warner Bros Movie World:
(Dates from Roller-coaster.com.au)

The Great Gremlins Adventure
AKA Gremlin Invasion

Warner Bros Movie World Australia
Opened: June 3 1991
Closed: 2001 due to pending retrofit for Scooby-Doo ride.

The Great Gremlins Adventure starts harmlessly. Seated in a comfortable screening room, you’ll see some of Hollywood’s funniest out-takes – the bits that didn’t make it onto the silver screen. 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 56 Gremlins on the loose!

    All you guys with pics and such, especially Matt, a recently opened file sharing site seems like just the thing. Drop.io is typically used to shunt files back and forth among business team members, but pictures uploaded to it will be viewable and embeddable. And unlike photobucket, no bandwidth limit. You can utilize it as your very own photobucket with larger space, just don’t forget to turn guest deletions off! Name it something easy to remember as well, don’t use the default letter jumble. Call it something like GremlinsRideVideo or GremlinsRidePicsNVideo, and there you have it.
    You should also use http://www.netvideohunter.com to nab the youtube videos (don’t forget to increase to the largest size first, the one that weighs more is the one you want) and upload them as well.

    You guys offer nintendo 64 games or 23 bucks for Gremlins movie props have to be insane. Get ready to pay tens of thousands of dollars.
