The Hole in 3D. (12A)

On the 25th September Me and my friend,Jade, went to the Apollo in Leamington to see the Hole in 3D. 
 The film was about a family of three, Susan (mum) and her two sons (Dane and Lucas). They move to a rather sleepy little town called Bensonville and the only thing Dane likes about it, is their next door neighbour, Julie. 
 When the boys decide to explore their new house, they find a creepy hole in their basement. Julie comes round and looks into the hole with the two boys. They soon realise that because they have looked into the hole their worst fears come out of it and chase them. The whole film is about them figuring out how to get rid of the hole and how to get rid of their worst fears with it. 

 The aim of the film was to make a kids horror film that was still scary but wouldn't give kids nightmares about it for weeks on end. The reason they shot it in 3D was because they wanted it to be extremely life-like and also because every new film coming out is shot in 3D. 


I think the film achieved these aims really well. When Jade and me went to see it, we were scared and even though it didn't scare me afterwards like most horror films i've seen, it scared me while watching it. The film is very sinister and depressing. The audience was mainly 14-15 year old's with some parents and their kids. I think the audience was impressed by the film because while it was playing the cinema was silent and after it had finished there was a buzz about the film and a lot of the people were talking about it and how good it was. 


I think maybe to make it better the director (Joe Dante) could have made more sinister things for the characters to be scared of. Apart from that the film was brilliant and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good childrens horror film.
