Looks like rebooting John Carpenter’s Halloween wasn’t enough for director David Gordon Green as he recently took part in a Reddit AMA – along with Danny McBride – and said he’d like the chance to reboot Critters and/or Ghoulies.
“I’d like to make a little Critters/Ghoulies movies,” Green said. “And I’ll get to work on Jody [Hill] right away.”
McBride added: “When I was a boy I asked my parents for Goonies for Christmas and they gave me a copy of Ghoulies, never gotten over it.”
Is Green serious when he says he wants the chance to make a Critters and/or Ghoulies movie? God, I hope so. But I guess only time will tell.
Which would you rather see Green put back up on the screen, Critters or Ghoulies? Let us know in the comments section or on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram!
Critters synopsis:
When strange fuzzy creatures from outer space arrive on a farm, the Brown family — Jay (Billy Green Bush), Helen (Dee Wallace-Stone), their daughter, April (Nadine Van Der Velde), and their son, Brad (Scott Grimes) — must fend off the malevolent little aliens. Two bounty hunters with superhuman abilities follow the aggressive beasts from beyond, but the warriors aren’t terribly effective, leaving the Brown family to battle the fur balls and rescue April from their clutches all by themselves.
Ghoulies synopsis:
As a child, Jonathan (Peter Liapis) was almost killed by his father, Malcolm (Michael Des Barres), during a satanic ritual. After being saved and raised by Wolfgang (Jack Nance), who has kept him unaware of his background, Jonathan inherits Malcolm’s house and moves in with girlfriend Rebecca (Lisa Pelikan). During a party, he jokingly performs a ceremony described in one of his father’s books on black magic, not realizing he has unleashed small, demonic creatures known as “Ghoulies.”
