The story of a family besieged by small, troublemaking creatures that wreak havoc on their town over the Christmas holiday. Criticism of the film's blend of horror and comedy caused executive producer Steven Spielberg to suggest that the Motion Picture Association of America design a new, more fitting film rating, which led the MPAA to create the PG-13 rating in response.
