Lionsgate deserves some love. However you feel about their inexcusable treatment of Midnight Meat Train they have opted to give the classic eighties horror flick The Gate a solid, special edition DVD release this Halloween. If you've never seen The Gate prepare to be shocked. Not only is it an underrated minor classic but it contains some of the best and most fun special effects of its decade.Starring an impossibly young Stephen Dorff, The Gate tells the story of three kids beset by various bogeys after accidently opening up a gateway to a baaaaaaaad place in their backyard. You get an audio commentary from the filmmakers, interviews with Michael nankin and FX crew Randall William Cook and Craig Reardon
