Why Restoring Cult Movies Is A Public Service, According To Legendary Horror Director Joe Dante [Exclusive] - SlashFilm Joe Dante, the filmmaker behind movies like Gremlins, Piranha, The Howling, and The 'Burbs, has strong feelings about the restoration of cult films.

I got a chance to chat with @bjcolangelo.bsky.social of @slashfilm.bsky.social during @screamfactory.bsky.social's special Piranha screening at @vidiots.bsky.social last week about cult cinema restoration & preservation!

In a night of pure magic with the incomparable @thejoedante.bsky.social and some gremlin friends, we had the best time at our sold out screening of GREMLINS 2 on 35mm (big shout out to our projectionists who helped make the night so unforgettable)

Such a pleasure to have you in our theater, as always!

As always, it was a treat to hang out with 270 pals for a screening of one of my movies at @vidiots.bsky.social! Tonight, that movie was Gremlins 2: The New Batch, on a 35mm print!! I was accompanied by a special guest for my Q&A.
