The Hole – Released Today On Blu-Ray & DVD

Released today, just in time for “Blue Monday”, is Joe Dante’s return to the horror genre he thrives in so anarchically. Having brought us cult classics like Piranha, The Howling and Gremlins, it’s been sometime since Mr. Dante gave us something new to grit our teeth over (he made an episode for the Masters of Horror TV series but this is cinema!).

Initially released in theatres as a kids film back in September parents were quick to point out with some irritation that this film is not for children. Brothers Dane and Lucas discover a bottomless pit in the basement of their new house. They soon discover that the pit, or “Hole”, will manifest your greatest fears and make them a reality. Needless to say, a very creepy clown pops up. 

Featuring a plot-line similar to one of the better X-Files episodes and with uncredited script work by Guillermo Del Toro, Joe Dante returns with his best films in many a year. That’s not even meant to sound like a poster sound-bite it’s the truth. He has always achieved the great feet of making entertaining films which appeal to both adults and children and injecting them with a undercurrent of menace and lots of mayhem. The Hole is out today from Way To Blue on Blu-Ray and DVD. Let’s see what pissed off the parents so much!
