The Gate: Dark Fantasy or Just Mildly Terrifying?

This week, we dig up some tiny demons in The Gate!

We’re cracking open The Gate (1987)—aka what happens when your backyard becomes a portal to hell and your parents leave you home alone with some geodes and a mysterious hole in the backyard.

Alex and Stephanie dive into this chaotic cocktail of stop-motion demons, melting faces, and questionable parenting. Is The Gate a nostalgic gem or just a dirt pile of ‘80s madness? We’re talking tiny terrors, accidental summoning rituals, and the real horror: the death of the family dog! In this episode, we’ll debate the fantasy and horror elements, discuss why evil is cute when it’s pint sized and determine if we need a babysitter to get through this one.

Tune in to see where it lands on the scariness scale of 1-13! Bring your shovel but be wary of tiny demons and extra eyes!
