After The Last Rental - The Gate (1987)

July 28, 2026·35 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

This week on After the Last Rental, we're cracking open the 1987 cult classic The Gate and pairing it with a pour of Buffalo Trace Bourbon—Mike's gateway whiskey into bourbon. Using our 3 Sips System, we revisit the movie's unforgettable practical effects, Satanic Panic atmosphere, and surprisingly effective nightmare fuel, while debating whether its tiny demons, meandering story, and over-the-top finale still hold up today. Is The Gate an overlooked '80s gem or just a nostalgic rental best left on the shelf? Grab a glass and join us as we decide if this cult favorite deserves to be served Neat, On the Rocks, or Watered Down.   👍 Like, comment, and subscribe for more classic movie reviews and pairings.   Get the new After The Last Rental TV Tee here!   Check out the video store: @terrorracksvideo  subscribe to: Terror Racks YouTube     Subscribe to: Whiskey Morgue YouTube Follow: @whiskeymorgue Check out the merch: www.whiskeymorgue.com
