    What an absolutely wonderful film!

    I have such fond memories of 'The Gate'. Thankfully, I enjoyed it just as much as an adult as I did way back then.

    Hungarian director Tibor Takacs brought us the unforgettable horror thriller 'The Gate'. I'm not sure whether to call it a classic, but it certainly is a memorable film. It is a very well made film in the time before CGI. Sure, most of the visual effects doesn't hold so well by today's standards, but whenever I watch an old movie, I view it for what it is and envision it for what it must have been back in the day. In the 80s they had to rely on practical effects - real film making as opposed to doing everything on computer in post production nowadays! They also made use of stop-motion photography, as you'll clearly notice when the giant demon makes its appearance.

    The acting is very good, and the little demons especially are well made (in a time before CGI, that is). Some of the practical effects are truly amazing and its wonderful how total chaos ensues during the final act. The film also delivered a few really funny moments, without the humor being out of place or being slapstick. Then there's also the more serious moments, like Glen (Dorff) dealing with the loss of the family dog. These were emotional moments I'm certain everyone who has had to bid farewell to a furry family member can relate to. I enjoyed the characters and the character development. Interesting to see a very, very young Stephen Dorff here...

    I absolutely love 'The Gate' and will easily rate this among my many favorite 80s horror films. A real gem of a movie.

    Protect Our Trees!

    Believe it or not, this was much better than I initially anticipated. I expected one of those God-awful, cheesy special effects, mindless eighties horror films - a decade I think was a low ebb for that genre in general. I got to see a 35mm print of The Gate and was impressed with several things. Now before I get out of control here, make no mistake, this is not a great film even in terms of the horror genre, but it is a bona-fide campy, cult favorite from the eighties with good reason. The story is ridiculous about some hole, as a result of an old tree being destroyed in a family's backyard, having demons living down deep in its bowels. A rock band that died tragically also is involved, or at least the record album on hand complete with a huge history of demonology attached. Add a couple more-than-precocious boys, a bunch of teens, looking dreadfully eighties-style, attending a party while the parents are away, and some freaky little demons and you have much of The Gate. The little demons are cute and spooky and the director Tibot Takics actually visualizes them rather nicely - particularly in an era when special effects for horror and science fiction films were quite low in terms of quality. The director was also able to create some suspense and some interesting characters with the 2 small boys in particular. Stephen Dorff and Louis Tripp play Glenn and Terry respectively and give the film some heart. There is not much to recommend as far as the remaining cast is concerned, but The Gate delivers some solid scares, some atmospheric settings and direction, and some surprisingly good special effects. Good campy fun!

    Kids Horror Movie

    The Gate is a bit of fun for adults and pre-teen kids alike.

    Its a nice adventure story that draws you in, keeping you entertained throughout.

    The effects are pretty cool, low budget but effective.

    Far from award winning but even further away from terrible, The Gate will give you a giggle and keep the kids hiding under the bed :)

    Amazing!!!

    If you are ever in the mood of seeing a funny and thrilling 80's horror movie, please watch The Gate! Don't trust IMDb with the 5 rating it's much better than that! I love the opening scene, the monsters and the thrilling scenes it contains.

    The movie is about a Gate to hell or something which lies in a young boy and his sisters garden. Suddenly when it's dark, monsters emerge from the gate and attack the boy and the girl. The monsters are small latex beasts which also like incredible good and monster like. And there are some scenes with a zombie dude which are totally outstanding! I'm not going to spoil the end because this is a special effect extravaganza! Must see!

    Underrated Cult-Movie

    The boy Glen (Stephen Dorff) and his best fried Terry (Louis Tripp) accidentally open a gate to hell when a rotten tree is removed from the backyard of Glen's house. When his dog die and a friend of Glen's sister, the teenager Alexandra (Christa Denton), buries the animal in the hole, demons from an ancient civilization are released, seeking for two human sacrifices to dominate the world. Glen, Al and Terry, who are spending the weekend alone in the house, fight to save their lives and close the hole.

    I do not recall how many times I have seen "The Gate" on VHS and now on DVD. The funny story has a terrible conclusion, but the special effects were amazing in 1987. This cult-movie is very underrated inclusive in IMDb but who cares? I still love this little gem of the fantastic cinema. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "O Portão" (VHS) / "O Portal" (DVD) ("The Gate")

      The logo on the back of Terry's jacket is that of the Killer Dwarfs, a heavy metal band from the Toronto, Ontario area who were known for their offbeat sense of humor.

      When Glen is descending the crumbling staircase there is a brief shot of his legs searching for a foothold. The legs are clearly those of a female stunt double.

      Terrence 'Terry' Chandler: May the old devils depart! May they burn in the fires of their own damnation! May they freeze in the infinite golden darkness of their own hideous creation!

      Glen: Isn't that kind of insulting?

      Terrence 'Terry' Chandler: I guess it's supposed to be. I mean, we're trying to get rid of them.
