After learning about the portal to the gates of hell said to be in his town, Terry decides to cast a spell and see if he can make his life a little better. Using his computer and a book of ancient incantations, the determined young man begins his ritual. Unfortunately before he is finished, the two town bullies and their girl friend intervene and find themselves hopelessly involved when the gates open and out pops a diminutive demon who is more than happy to do their bidding. At first the kids are delighted to finally have their hearts desire, but it is only a matter of time before the demon's true nature manifests itself and all their dreams turn to nightmares. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

You have to take this film for what it is, Candian Horror and Horror for young people, As you have a Harry Potter Looking Main Star (Louis Tripp) and his bad girl, and 2 rowdy friends who try to make life hard for young Terry. The Special Effects are what saves this movie and brings it to 3 stars. Grossed me out when the guy squeezed his zit and it shot out of his pimple like a water fountain. But besides all this beforeGate II was over I was hoping that there was a Gate 3, but still with all that still only worth 3 stars. I have yet to See The Gate, like this one when I find it in a pawn shop I will pick it up.

When Terry friends Glen moved away he left the gate to hell unguarded to anyone that wanted to open it now its five years later and a teenaged Terry has decided to do some good with the gate and use a ritual to help his father get a better job but for Terry to get that wish he and his friends must sacrifice parts of themselves. Ok sequel to The Gate had some pretty fun moments but all and all can be seen or not seen you wont lose sleep over it.
