It's Halloween, and our treat tonight is speaking with Joe Dante, who
will be walking the red carpet in a few hours for the US premiere of
his new film, The Hole at the AFI film festival. Some of the stars of
the movie, will be there as well. There are actors he has worked with
before. I asked Marc Halperin to help me with the interview, as he
distributed Joes' film The Howling while at Embassy Pictures in the
glory days of 80's Horror films...
