BEYOND THE GATES

Dir. Jackson Stewart, 2016
84 minutes, USA

Special thanks to Jackson Stewart!

Two estranged brothers reunite at their missing father's video store to liquidate the property and sell off his assets. As they dig through the store, they find a VCR board game dubbed 'Beyond The Gates' that holds a connection to their father's disappearance and deadly consequences for anyone who plays it.

Filmmaker Jackson Stewart brings a tribute to the evil's of VHS and tabletop gaming to Spectacle for a special Halloween treat. Barbara Crampton (FROM BEYOND) stars alongside Chase Willamson (THE GUEST) and Brea Grant (Robert Zombie's HALLOWEEN II) in a flick certain to make you reconsider picking up the dice ever again. Jackson's film weaves grief, loss, family, laffs, and gore together and crams them all in a clamshell case of doom. Barbara Crampton steals the show as the host of the deadly game and easter eggs abound for the keen eyed viewer. In an ear so obsessed with nostalgia BEYOND THE GATES delivers for those who ever rolled the bones against the Gatekeeper in the NIGHTMARE board game series. See it to jump-start your Hallo-weekend!
