"Billy (Gilligan) and fiance Kate (Cates) work at a multi-purpous building owned by an eccentric billionare Clamp (Glover). It's in New York, and right down the street is Chinatown where Gizmo (Mandell) has just escaped his former home which is being destroyed. He is found by people who work in the genetics laboratory of the Clamp building. Billy rescues him and tells Gizmo to stay in hiding until after office hours. Unfourtunately, the rules are broken once again and the gremlins are running rampant in the building which includes shopping mall, genetics lab, and cable stations. What's worse, the gremlins have been messing around with the genetic serums causing all sorts of transformations including a highly intelligent, or "Brain" Gremlin (Randall). This little "Pest" problem has to be taken care of before sundown or else it's the apocolypse for NYC!"
