Hellgate (1989)

[gregmtl92]

Toronto - Unobstructed View is proud to be releasing the only North American licensed version of Hellgate on Blu-ray, coming to stores and in digital release on June 27, 2023.

This 1989 cousin to the Hellraiser series is a classic example of the era of South African cult horror production. Directed by schlockmeister extraordinaire William A. Levey (Skatetown USA, The Happy Hooker Goes To Washington) Hellgate opens with a motorcycle gang kidnapping a young woman, Josie, from a diner and brutally killing her. Many years later, the girl’s father finds a magic crystal that can bring the dead back to life and uses it to re-animate his daughter. He lets her seduce any young men who visit the small town–Hellgate–then kills them. This release includes all the bonus features from Arrow’s UK release of Hellgate plus the full-length documentary Images of Apartheid: Filming On The Fringe In Old South Africa. The limited first pressing will come with a collectible O-Card.
