One filmmaker who was a staple in my childhood was Joe Dante, I grew up with his work (such as GREMLINS, GREMLINS 2, THE HOWLING, THE ‘BURBS, EERIE INDIANA) and I am not sure what type of person I’d have become without them. His films manage to blend horror/comedy perfectly; whether they are aimed at teenagers/adults or children/family they all just seem to work. He’s a man for all seasons, no matter what you’re in the mood for he’ll have the right recipe for it. The man has dipped into feet into so much: films, television and even the fantastic TRAILERS OF HELL website, he knows no boundaries. So ladies and gentlemen, without further ado I present to you Joe Dante!
