Gates of Darkness

I can tell, that they really tried to do something serious and great with this b-class movie - but oh my did it ever go wrong. It starts ok. We have this confusing modern family with some 25+ year old teenagers that go to this school that really is so absurd that you will just start wondering if this is going to turn out as a comedy after all.

Well they tried horror, that does not work at all - there is nothing horrory in this movie. They tried suspense, well that didn't work either. So what do we have? We have a movie that sucks so hard and gets so hilariously bad towards the end that you'll just wonder what the actual f did I just watch and more importantly WHY? It can't be unseen, sadly.

There are some decent actors here. The script is - well childish, outdated and ridiculously bad. Even the sounds are messed up pretty bad.

Kept me anxious and uncomfortable throughout - just waiting for something bad to happen encouraged by an effective sound score.

I have no idea? I couldn't keep the characters straight for one; white, black, boy, girl.....I guess this is today's modern family? The acting is bad, the special effects horrible. It's a mess.

Shallow and generic. It plays out like it was written by an occasional chuch goer/lifetime movie enthusiast that wanted to try to tackle the topic of exorcism. I would probably classify it more comedy than horror or drama.

Very slow moving. This isn't even B rated it's more like D- rated. I expected more when I seen the actor from Saw played in it but he was the only thing that kept me watching. Snooze fest. Still don't quite understand what happened in the movie
