Joe Dante on the Gremlins anniversary

[froodle]

#JoeDante at the 35th #AnniversaryClassics of #Gremlins talking about the fact that #Amblin and #StevenSpielberg hated the #PhoebeCates monologue about her father. Even went as far to shoot alternatives. Apparently the script was a writing sample, and never meant to be a studio film. Everyone on set was fed up with the Gizmo #animatronic puppet because it kept breaking down. #InnerSpace #Gremlins #TheBurbs #TheHowling #Piranha #EerieIndiana #ChrisWalas
