I loved this movie when I was a kid and ended up buying it on VHS a few years ago off ebay. The movie has only a few GPK from the cards, but it is still great. The plot is mainly about a 14-year-old boy who works for a weird antique-shop owner. He accidentally knocks over a garbage can described by the owner as being "Pandora's Pail" and whola! Say hello to the garbage pail kids!! Throughout the movie they help the boy put a much older bully in his place (the guy who played this bully is the reason I had to give the acting score a B--Horrible!) and they also helped him win over an older, way out-of-his-league girl. Some cool songs throughout the movie and a lot of disruption caused by the GPK, including some bar scenes. Film companies would be way too scared to release this type of kids movie anymore; this is a classic for sure!
