My mom and I were driving from Washington to Montana to visit my grandpa back in 2000. We stopped in Wallace to get gas and some food, but I noticed that the place seemed familiar. We drove by a shop and I saw a big sign that said "Welcome to Dante's Peak" and I freaked out. I loved this movie so i was very familiar with it. We drove around to find where the mine was and stopped to get some souvenirs. I still have a post card with the banner from the festival they had in the movie and pictures of how they made the huge piles of ash around the town. It is still one of the coolest things I've ever stumbled upon.
I lived here when they filmed. I was on the bridge watching them film the scene when they cross the river with the SUV and I worked in the restaurant where the bar was. Very cool to see what they did.
Did the Suburban "SUV" make it across the river under it's own power or was it pulled/towed across? always want to know
@@AL-ud2is When I was there, it was being held by a cable as they waited for the car to hit it. In short, I didn’t see it come out of the water. Here’s the long: when they come crashing through the trees and into the water, all of the trees were actually tree branches that were shoved into pieces of pvc in the ground. I assume because they break easily. Then the Suburban was being held in place while the car hit the Suburban over and over. The car was somehow made floatable and had a cable hooked to it as well. Right before they would start filming, two jet skies would circle around the Suburban to simulate wake as if they just hit the water and then a guy would release the car to hit them. They would reset and do it again. Pretty cool to watch.
Just watched the movie again. Still great even after all.these years. This movie is a classic. Great special effects!
I'm glad they moved that volcano. Could have been disastrous.
How could you move one??
Or maybe it blew itself out of existence to the point where it’s flat dookan kijisk
@@shaycormac4522 r/woooosh
lol you cant move a mt. lol Dante's Peak is not a real Cascade volcano
@@MommaBearsCorner Really?? you don't say. But what if I told you there was photographic evidence on the internet...UA-cam no less. Right here, looky. ua-cam.com/video/ZWU5dAmnbTo/v-deo.html
I lived in Wallace when they were filming. It was fun!
roxyh34 Has tourism and the population increased since 1997?
+Lieutenant Yoshi. I only lived there in 1996 but it probably has
Bet it was a little chaotic few weeks of filming with streets being closed lol
+roxyh34 lol were you part of the cast? I know they used townspeople as extras.
+roxyh34 We were there for a family reunion. Most fun week ever!!!
This is really neat, gives a whole new perspective on how they digitally added in the mountain. And given this film came out in 97, I think they did a hell of a job for when it was made.
Because it wasn't digital. It's a optical effect with using tracked matte painting
@@emp0rizzle wow learn something new everyday:)
emp0rizzle I had a vhs tape for Dante’s Peak when I was young in the mid 2000s and along with the movie, there was a bloopers and behind the scenes at the very end of the credits. They remade a miniature volcano to it and they detonated from the funnel and smoke and tiny rock cane shooting upwards, that’s probably what they used for the scenes from getting out of town scenes and all around those parts lol
They actually built it
Although they were filming this around Wallace, I'd like to add that Pierce Brosnon was residing in Post Falls. It was my 2nd year having a car, so I was driving around a lot. I would pass by Pierce as he jogged alone through the neighborhood. I saw him several times, and nobody believed me until one of our neighbors confirmed it.
I remember waving and he saw me, returning the kind gesture. He wasn't the only movie star or professional athlete who we'd see. It was kind of a community pride thing, where they could be here and not become hassled by any of us.
Maybe more than 5 years ago, I was driving away from a job site in Coeur d'Alene and passed by a house with a guy 100% identical to Kid Rock, just didn't think anything of it. He was standing in front of a random house alone but with some dog. Kept it to myself, and later people lit up social media with their reported sightings & pictures. He was visiting friends/family. Travolta has been up here...his mom lives nearby, so he'd visit often, too, until she passed away (I believe she did).
The bridge photos give you a sense of how high the lahar flow was.
Awwww... the fictional town of Dante's Peak is where I want to live!!! 😢
I've always wanted to live at a place like this. Without the eruptions though
Wow, incredible how they cleaned up after all of that devastation. And to think the volcano's eruption was so powerful that it reduced the mountain to less than a quarter of its size, you can't even see it in the pictures anymore. Just amazing! So glad Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton made it out okay. I heard they were filming some kind of romantic comedy in the town there when all hell broke loose.
@@MelissaAnnLegard1989 Lol you realize they were joking right?
😂😂 I thought you were serious at first.
If I lived in Wallace I would want them to leave the mountain there after they finished filming. The town looks much nicer with the mountain. And house prices would probably be higher if they left the mountain.
You’re joking right?
We were on a trip out west a few years back and spent a night in Wallace. The lady at the hotel told us a lot of interesting stuff about the movie. One was that they used wet newspapers for the lava ash. She said they had a time cleaning it up. Lot more stuff but I can’t remember...lol
WOW!! Awesome 😄 I had a pal whose aunt lived in Boise at the time. He mentioned her BFF from middle school lived there with her hubby who ran into Pierce Brosnan one morning at a coffee shop. He was very polite and charming to her....and paid for her coffee. She thought he was a total hottie 😂lol
Great job ! It's odd this place looks so "empty" without the volcano in the distance. It's as if it misses something...😎
I watch Dante's peak about 3 times a day. Love that movie so much.
What about volcano? Both that and Dante peak have similar themes
Foxy I bet you wake up to “it’s coffee tiiiiime” everyday lul
@@projectjt3149 I might just do that!
@@jessiebrown8843 LMFAO
If you have a chance to go to Wallace I highly recommend it. It’s a beautiful little town. I grew up in Spokane and drive back often, and we always stop in Wallace.
I really love this movie and I think the town is really beautiful never know this is a real town.
I have gone to filming locations and tried to match shots for films like _Vanishing Point_ and _Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry_ You did a great job in matching the shots.
The one thing is They used a number of miniature models for some of the shots. Example, the army trucks going across the bridge and the town covered in ash is all miniatures. Just shows how well they made it look.
This movie is very similar to the eruption activities in Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines. Like fast movement of phyroclastic clouds and What we call it in tagalog is "Lahar" at the end of the movie
Thanks for doing this! I was always curious about the town after the film. It's so cute!
It actually looks better with the peak there
God I miss the 90s
0:52 This bridge where Paul died when his van gets stuck?
But doesn't the volcano exist?Did they make it with a computer and special effects?it seems a real mountain
Campanaro Virgiliano no. It doesn’t exist, it was CGI and reference shots from other mountains.
lmao.. This movie was filmed in 1996. It was all optical, miniatures (the mud flows, bridge, pyroclastic flow, etc), matted paintings (the volcano itself). Practical effects.
the volcano was sort of based on an actual volcano specifically mount st Helens
Awesome! Thank you for sharing this
Great video. Going up there in a few weeks. Any chance you wouldn’t mind revealing the exact addresses for these locations? Thank you.
Great, thanks!...You sure know the movie since you could find all those places. When were you there? (The same year you oploaed this on youtube?).. And what did the people living there think of the movie?
These are my photos, they were taken over the summer in 2007. All the photos can be seen here www.flickr.com/photos/rocbolt/albums/72157623238340875
I would have moved there if it had the mountain in real life as in the movie...
I was just watching Dante's Peak before, a great disaster movie :D
It’s amazing how they put movies together
Just like the movie pet cemetery was made at many different locations put together
Such a good movie. Waaaaaaay better than Volcano.
I think volcano is better
@ElTortugaAnime ElTortugaAnime both had good concepts (a volcano in mexico did spring up within a week after all so could happen anywhere I guess) one a conventional one a fast reveal of a volcano to the populace that is unknowingly sitting right on top of it
Yes it is
Rip to this beautiful town 😢😢😢 it’s now nothing but waste lands
Great job. More more.
I genuinely didn't know that the volcano wasn't real.
Wow thanks for doing this video, this is just what I was looking for without even knowing. :P
what volcano is that? They did took a real volcano as model or it has been created ex novo?
Per IMBD it's Mt. St Helen's
sooo.. you cant see the mountain from anywhere in the town?
There is no mountain/volcano. It was CGI. I live 35 miles from Wallace, in Spokane.
gary higgins no they took the mountain back when they finished the filming. It was only there while they did the movie film.
@@KILLFELIX Ha ha ha!
The whole mountain blew up. You'll see if you watch the movie. All the other pictures were after they cleaned up the mess and whatnot.
Is Dante's Peak a True Life Real Volcano over in the state of Idaho?
It’s not real, it’s an effect
wow well made cgi i alwyays thought this was a real mountain
Lies all lies.My childhood was a sham.Dang you dante
That ending explosion of dantes peak the first explosion was bad enough that ending was like a valcano orgasmic of epic disaster
That be fucked up lol that volcano was really there
The actaul mountian they shot erupting was footages of the real Mount Staint Helens Volcano when it erupted way back in 1980!That was the real deadly Volcano rupting in that movie!👍
Actually,it was all pratical effects and CGI.There was no St.Helens footage.
@@angrylizard8054
At the end. The volcano the show is Mt St Helens
cool. tks for sharing.
Nice, we are building a replica of the suburban from the movie. Our goal is to have this project completed by May 2014. The vehicle will be driven to Wallace Idaho for their car show. More info at coloradok5.com and on facebook
So did you ever accomplish this? I love this movie!
Yes; yes we did! www.dantespeaksuburban.com and also on facebook lots of pictures
Did you move the page to another site?
Is Linda Hamilton still the mayor there?
😂😂😂
would be cool if the mountain were actualy their
Nice video! Do you know where they shot the scenes looking down on the town from the hot springs area?
Yes, the overlook is above the town of Osburn, ID which is directly west of Wallace. If you check out one of the photos from that scene there is a map on the page that shows the exact location www.flickr.com/photos/rocbolt/4334920824/in/album-72157623238340875/
Excellent, thanks! I'm planning a trip that goes right through there so I wanted to check.
The hot springs sadly are not actually there. The overlook of the town was filmed up this little gulch called Two Mile located right next to the town of Osburn. I'd know because I live up there
Que chingon
Then There Is Not a Real Volcano In The Real Life?
I didn't see hot lava hot springs. Lol
Better than under los angles, but that film was decent
Alberts landing in Kingston Idaho!!! Yay!!!
i wish the volcano was real and make it on wallace but make the volcano extinct
Best disaster movie ever!
Lava is dangerous.
The mountains just actually cgi animation
So it’s basically mount saint Helen’s edited there?
my life is a lie there was no volcano-
Bellissimo, per Dio
A fictional volcano
