The Gate
FantasyHorror86 min
A quiet suburban backyard turns dangerous when two boys uncover a deep hole in the ground and unwittingly open a path for demons to cross into their world. What starts as a strange discovery becomes a siege inside and around the house as small, vicious creatures multiply and the signs of something much larger begin to surface. Left to face it with little help from adults, the boys scramble to understand what they have unleashed and how to stop it before the opening widens. Stephen Dorff is at the center of the chaos in this 1987 horror film directed by Tibor Takács.
