The Gate Opens





THE GATE-1987-Some stupid parents leave their teenage daughter in charge of their house and her younger brother Glen (Stephen Dorff) for three days. Glen and his nerdy friend (Louis Tripp) find a rock buried in the ground. The death of Glen’s dog and a heavy metal album played backwards somehow open up a gate that releases stop motion mini-monsters to terrorize the trio.

 The effects are pretty good in this low budget but entertaining movie. Director Tibor Takacs later made I, MADMAN and GATE 2: THE TRESPASSERS.

Thanks for reading!
