June 05, 2007 Savage Steve Holland, the writer-director of 1980s classics like "Better Off Dead," is returning to the genre that made his career with "The Big One 3," his first feature film in more than 18 years. Holland wrote and directed 1985's "Dead" and 1986's "One Crazy Summer," both starring John Cusack, before segueing into television, building a name for himself directing such shows as "Even Stevens," "Lizzie McGuire" and "Phil of the Future." The family comedy centers on a father who will do whatever he can to make his 13-year-old son's birthday special because his was a disaster.
