Joe Dante launches Trailers from Hell
Joe Dante, who directed the Gremlins films, Small Soldiers, Matinee, Amazon Women on the Moon and five episodes of Eerie, Indiana, is launching a new website. According to Variety, Trailers from Hell lets directors record commentary tracks to scary movie trailers, which you can then pick up on line or on your cell phone.
Besides Joe, other directors on the site are Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz), Mick Garris (the television versions of The Shining and The Stand), and Mary Lambert (Pet Sematary).
You can see the site at trailersfromhell.com, and Sprint’s Fun Little Movie channel.
Hi,I work for Joe Dante's company in Los Angeles which produces theTrailers From Hell site. I have you on our press list (most likely froman old review or blog of yours) and would like to add your contact infoand link to the review. Can you email me back with your email address? Thanks so much,Mark Brown
Interesting site. For hilarious commentary tracks to some of the best and worst movies of all time, check out RiffTrax.com. Mike Nelson, the former head writer and star of Mystery Science Theater, leads a crew that has taken film commentary tracks and made it an art form! They've skewered a ton of Superhero and comics related movies. http://www.rifftrax.com/
