Summary

A young night watchman at an old film studio discovers a vault containing small furry creatures called Hobgoblins, which make their victims' wildest fantasies come true before killing them. After the creatures escape, the watchman and his friends must track them down across town and destroy them before dawn. Widely regarded as one of the worst films ever made, it was famously lampooned on Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Released in 1988, Hobgoblins is a comedy, horror and science-fiction film.
