Bruce Dern on the set of The Hole 3D

On a recent trip to the set of The Hole 3D, directed by master of horror Joe Dante, I had the pleasure of meeting with American cinema icon Bruce Dern. As well as speaking at length about his character in the film, things which might be too much of a spoiler to release at this time, we asked him about his part in the classic science fiction film Silent Running.

Behind the Scenes #1 – Kick off episode features 3D movies

The Behind the Scenes kick-off episode features a pair of 3D movies, a concert film by  The Jonas Brothers and Joe Dante’s The Hole 3D. The duo explores the 3D film-making process and discuss Joe Dante’s past films (Gremlins, Gremlins 2, The Howling, and Piranha). They also highlight scenes from the Shakespearean-like Bengali film, Shyama.

The Hole Synopsis:

From visionary director Joe Dante comes a suspense thriller that explores the fears and secrets buried deep in the human mind. Life couldn’t possibly get worse, or so thought 17 year old Dane and his 10 year old brother Lucas, when their single mother Susan uproots them from New York City to the sleepy little town of Bensonville. For Dane the only exciting thing about their new town is the beautiful girl next door, Julie. With Susan spending more and more time at work, Dane and Lucas are left unattended to explore the depths of their eerie new residence. With Dane paying more attention to Julie, he has far less time and patience for his little brother. But then everything changes when they find a sinister bottomless hole under a locked trap door in the basement. As the brothers experiment with the hole they realize that the cold pit goes on forever. They drop a nail and never hear it hit bottom. They lower a flashlight and a video camera and they get consumed by the darkness. Hoping for some answers about the house’s past, Dane and Lucas bring Julie in on their new discovery. When the hole is exposed, evil is unleashed. With strange shadows lurking around every corner and past nightmares coming to life, the trio will have to come face to face their darkest fears to put an end to THE HOLE.
