We have all heard the stories of hidden messages in some of our favorite songs when played backwards, like Led Zepplin's Stair Way to Heaven.
This brings us to he 1987 movie "The Gate", this is the story of kids who's parents leave them alone for a weekend unleash more than a wild party, they let loose demons from hell. It all starts when the younger brother, Glen (Stephen Dorff) finds a weird rock in a hole left over from a fallen down tree in his backyard. He gets his friend, Terry (Louis Tripp) who is a bit weird and in to the occult to look at the hole. After hearing some crazy noises down the whole the neighbor kid thinks it is a way to hell.
Then things start to get a little weird. After seeing weird symbols show up on a writing toy and a levitation ceremony the first signs of a demonic presence appear. The result is the family dog dies. Since obviously this wasn't enough this damn kid Terry plays a satanic heavy metal record with demonic magic chanting and some dumb ass throws the dead dog in the hole and lets just say it all goes to hell from there. All these events opens the gate to hell releasing demons to terrorize the kids.
The rest of the movie is filled with all sorts of crazy shit. Hands with eyeballs, little demons running around the house, a dead construction worker comes back to life that was sealed in the walls of the house, crazy parents and the biggest damn demon you will ever see right in their own living room.
Besides Gill (Stephen Dorff) being so damn annoying this is a kick ass movie. If your a horror movie collector this is a must have. Please check out the trailer below!
