The Pale Door

The trailer made it look like it was going to be interesting but this movie is not good at all. The acting is wooden, the story isn't interesting even though it could have been, the costumes look brand new and there is nothing scary or funny or thrilling or moving about it at all. Is it impossible to find a good low budget horror these days? i know small budgets come with limitations but that shouldn't have an effect on creativity. As somebody else said, watch Bone Tomahawk instead if you want a good western set horror movie.

Extremely disappointing! Jake the little brother literally killed the movie! The movie could have been much better than what it is. Cheap movie even though the idea was good. You could tell that the producer is not good. I am very disappointed to have wasted time watching this movie.

A bunch of cowboy tough guys on a heist job, now on the run, encounter a brothel with sexy ladies that are more then what they appear...sound familiar? In my opinion, the cast was great. Several B-Listers you may recognize from other films. Its weakest link is the direction, it is amateur at best! I understand this is low budget, so no CGI, and the makeup is not bad, it is just shown WAY too much, and WAY too close...making it laughable and not scary. The very first reveal of the "witches"...why did the witch have to "talk" if the actress can barely move her mouth in the makeup? Come ooon! The old adage "less is more" is prevalent here...keeping the witches in the shadows, barely shown, would've worked better. The pacing is not the best either, a lot of panning "fluff" shots to pad the runtime. At best this film is "average" due to the capable cast, music, SFX, sets, and production value. Where it fails is with the filmmaker. Given the resources seen on-screen, a capable filmmaker would've knocked it out of the park!

A gang of outlaws successfully pulls off a train heist, but instead of gold, the chest they steal reveals a young woman inside. Now it looks suspicious why wud somebody put a girl inside a trunk n lock it, chain it n guard it but the girl claims she was taken from her home n says that there would be a handsome reward for the gang if they return her home.

For a low budget, the director did a decent job. It is a nice genre mash up n fans of western n horror films will enjoy it. I am generous with an 8 cos i enjoyed it. Simple, aint no wannabe critic. It has good effects, lots of demonic witches, a lil nudity (blink n u miss some good busty boobs) n one of the best scene involving boots with spurs.

I like the plot even though it slightly mirrors the same plot of Robert Rodriguez' 1996 film called From Dusk til Dawn but with witches. Plus acting was pretty fair.
