Best New Slots Based on Popular Movies

Even though many experts claim that the cinema-going experience is dying as a feasible form of entertainment, films are unlikely to disappear anytime soon. Due to various cinematic franchises having vast fan bases, movies have also served as a popular theme in reel-spinning games for the past fifteen years or so. In other words, since providers could start to afford to pay for their licenses.

Over the years, the internet has gotten riddled with movie-based spinners, and this is a trend that no one foresees will go extinct in the near future. It seems like it is only a matter of time before a James Bond online roulette game hits gambling website lobbies, and films seep their way into other gaming genres aside from slots. Until then, here are the latest quality movie-themed reel-spinners that have appeared on the World Wide Web in the past two years for you to enjoy.

The Goonies Return

Children of the 1980s and 1990s likely have a soft spot in their hearts for the 1985 Richard Donner-directed flick titled the Goonies. Produced by Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment, this is now an adventure classic that has entered the public’s consciousness, often referenced in various media. Hence, in 2018, leading UK developer Blueprint Gaming dedicated that they should be the one to send the film’s famous characters onto digital reels. They did, and the move proved a stunning success. So much so that in September 2021, they expanded on their original game, adding three new free spins modes and two bonus rounds to its sequel – The Goonies Return.  

Gremlins: Time To Tumble

Gremlins, conceived by the man behind the Home Alone franchise, Chris Columbus, and brought to life by Joe Dante, is another childhood mainstay for many. It showed up in North American theaters a year before The Goonies and raked in over two hundred million on the global box office. It is fascinating that no Gremlins-themed game existed in the interactive gaming sphere until 2020 when Red7 released their Gremlins slot. However, there are now two spinners online that feature the famous Gizmo, as juggernaut Scientific Games set loose Time to Tumble in August 2021.

OngBak 2

Tony Ja is a martial arts silver screen star that blew up worldwide in 2004 when his 2003 movie titled Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior showed up on DVD in North America and Europe. It shocked fans of fighting films with its previously unseen acrobatics and elaborately orchestrated combat sequences. Its sequel got produced in 2008,  and in 2021, Eurasian Gaming unleashed a six-reel, seven-row slot based on it. It is a cartoony romp that bears little resemblance to the OngBak franchise.

From Dusk Till Dawn 10

Written by Quentin Tarantino, From Dusk Till Dawn, mainly gets remembered as a Robert Rodriguez creation. But, it without question features that specific Tarantino flavor, both in its dialogue and plot twists. In 2017, Novomatic brought this 1990s cult favorite to the slotverse. And. in November 2020, its interactive division Greentube churned out a sequel featuring the image likeness of all the actors in the film.
