@BDezimondo Design genius

This aged very well, practical FX is its own art

I don't understand how this level of FX was achieved on such a budget. They did great.

That movie is full of clever visual effects, I love it

This movie had insane FX for it's time, and they still hold up.

I just saw this movie, for the first time, a few weeks ago. Such a fun movie! I would have loved it as a kid.

@PromoteHorror Those pesky Gate minions!

@PromoteHorror 😱😱🖤

cool movie!

this is a kids movie but is still hella scary. i miss movies like this

I remember seeing this scene as a kid on TV in a commercial and it terrified me. Now I cam appreciate the fractal effects and the movie itself!

This scene blew my frigging mind as a teen in the theatres, was totally beyond anything I was expecting and it still holds up in 2026!

@matsushita_8bit 昔バカ殿で同じような効果を見た気がします。。。

@GamerJohn85 So good!

Loved The Gate...

Silly movie. A lot of fun.

Literally 12 goblins wearing a pair of overalls.

God bless Canada! 🫡

Esta película me la volví a ver el mes pasado 🤣🤣🤣

This movie gave me nightmares when I was a kid...."You have been bad"

This actually terrified me as a kid. It was on a late night double feature, which my mother always let me stay up to watch on a Friday, with the abominable Dr phibes. I was a vet by then from watching things like the thing and the exorcist so I don't know why it scared me

This movie used to freak me out when I was a kid.

I first saw this movie when I was in my 30s and I really wish I saw this as a kid because I know it would have had a big impact

This has always been one of my favorite scenes

Great movie!

@SSeeley92 😘😈🖤

I saw this in the theater and was like 7 yrs old didn't realize until a few yes ago the kid is Ethan hawk
