125 - The Gate (with Damien LeVeck)

Hello and welcome to EPISODE 125, the first episode since Andy turned forty! Sorry to say that with this landmark comes a maturity. So all the jokes are gone, no more jizz jokes. No more masturbation jokes. It's all serious, all the time now...  This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the director of Shudder Original THE CLEANSING HOUR... It's DAMIEN LeVECK! The film? THE GATE!  A favourite from Andy's childhood and, obviously, a first watch for Mitch, The Gate is one of the great underappreciated (it's obviously liked a heap but it should be up there with things like The Goonies). Will Mitch agree?  The synopsis is as follows:  When Al (Christa Denton) and Glenn's (Stephen Dorff) parents (Deborah Grover, Scot Denton) leave town for the weekend, Al uses the opportunity to throw a party while little brother Glenn and his friend Terry (Louis Tripp) decide to explore a hole left by a tree-removal service in the backyard. When unexplainable phenomena begin occurring, Terry -- with the help of his extensive heavy-metal music collection -- comes to the conclusion that he and Glenn have accidentally opened a gateway to hell.   Please note that this podcast may contain strong language and even stronger Scottish accents.  Also, why not pop over and take a look at our Patreon page?
