New Trailer Drops for Joe Dante’s The Hole
Yeah; Joe Dante’s THE HOLE still hasn’t been released!! Last I read it was going to be released on September 25, 2012, and now according to Yahoo Movies it’ll also have a limited theatrical release on September 28, 2012. Dante directed and Mark L. Smith wrote this tweener film starring Chris Massoglia, Haley Bennett, and Nathan Gamble. A new trailer and artwork (upper left) have been released for Dante’s PG-13 film. Check out the plot crunch:
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 (Chris Massoglia) and his 10-year-old brother, Lucas (Nathan Gamble), when their single mother, Susan (Teri Polo), 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 (Haley Bennett). 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 with their darkest fears to put an end to THE HOLE.
This one sounds a lot like 1987′s THE GATE … and I love THE GATE!! Now dig on the trailer:
Stay Bloody!!!
Meh… it looked decently intriguing until the whole “brings your fears to life” thing. I was hoping for something a little more original. Well, only time will tell.
It looks interesting, but it looks way too “family friendly” for my tastes!!
Too right you are!
