After growing up watching "The Gate" I was very happy to here they had made a sequel to this great film from the 80's. I had watched the sequel back in 1990 or somewhere in that time period and remember thinking it was entertaining. Years later, I just grabbed myself a copy of this film and watched it last night. All I have to say is BORING. What could have been a great idea the writers of the movie filled in with bad dialog, bad acting, and no direction. The only fun part of this movie was the last 20 minutes of the movie where you finally see some of the elements that made the first one so fun. I mean you start to see the classic stop motion animation which made many of the 80's films so great. A lot better than the computer animated stuff that comes out now. In general, this was to slow paced and the fun parts of the movie came way to late. But, if you were a fan of the first movie go ahead and check it out at the local video. 5 stars
