In Gremlins, the gift of the Mogwai, Gizmo, from Billy starts with pure innocence and excitement. Billy's excitement radiates when he gets this strange but cute creature. But, when the rules regarding Gizmo are violated, things go completely wrong. When Billy realizes how seriously things have gone wrong because of him is ironic. It is a powerful reminder of how even the best intentions with a gift can have unintended consequences, and how responsibility and caution are just as important as the joy a gift can bring.
