Anyone else like them? The original was really, really good, in my opinion. For some reason, I found the record that they played backwards all the time to be really creepy. I'm sure I wouldn't now, though. The second one wasn't so good. I still have my VHS copy of the original. I used to watch it at least once a month. I had forgotten about it till I found it on my shelf yesterday. Guess I'll have to dust off the old VCR and watch it.

I never saw the 2nd one, I saw the orginial: The Gate at the movies in 1987. I remember it very well, cause the little boy in it reminded me of my brother. I bought it on DVD, but have yet to get through watching it...there are really creepy parts of that movie, that I think should have gotten it an R rating.

I remember going to see The Gate at the movie theater and me and my friend, Heidi, were the only people in the whole theater. That was the first movie that I saw where no one else in the movies. I can kind of understand why, it was a bit corny. It is amazing at some of the films that got a wide release back then.
I don't think I have ever seen the 2nd one. It would be intersting to see if those actors from the first one ever went onto anything else. I vaguely remember the sister she kind of looked like this girl that I went to high school with.

I have The Gate on DVD. I thought it was cool. I didn't even know there was a sequel. I want to get Warlock and Witchboard on dvd also.

Louis Tripp was the only one who was in the second one. And it was made in like 1990 or 1991.

Good choice on The Gate pettyfan! The sequel left a bit to be desired to me though........

I really loved The Gate, it was pretty scary at the time. I didn't really enjoy the sequel though.
I watched The Gate again a couple of years ago and I still enjoyed it, even the crappy effects that I thought were really cool all those years ago!
