Joe Dante
The director of "Gremlins" tells IndieWire why it was imperative to be serious about the giant bug movie nested inside his 1993 comedy.
For the film's 40th anniversary, Joe Dante recalled how producer Steven Spielberg helped ensure that projectionists didn't cut the scene.
Gregg Araki, Ron Howard, and Joe Dante are also among the filmmakers present for the Los Angeles genre fest, running September 26 to October 10.
Dante argued that the image of Baby Yoda was "completely stolen" from 1984 comedy "Gremlins."
Joe Dante's decade-in-development biopic finally got the audience it deserved, thanks to a quality cast and an unbeatable atmosphere.
