Forced Perspective & The Gate (1987) With Jesse Gee

Never speak the words and be ready to blast the demon king as my guest Jesse Gee and I break down the movie, The Gate (1987). A young Stephen Dorff takes on the gate to hell and all its minions as it opens in his backyard. As a late 80s flick, be ready for hair-sprayed bangs and neon fashion and some amazing practical camera and costume effects.
