Good ghost story 
2008-03-30 - This is a pretty good one! I had low expectations with considering the other reviews plus the price is so cheap. Just what I call a hidden gem. This movie has more originality than most of your current ghost stories. It has that great eerie atmosphere a ghost story should have, filmed well, and good acting/directing. I enjoyed it...four stars!
Wretched - in a Bad Way 
2006-12-19 - If Hell's Gate eventually does open, it's my sincere hope that this movie will trot on over and tumble inside. It's simply awful. Despite what other reviewers have said, neither the acting nor the production values are the problem. The real downfall - as with most bad films - is the writing. The story simply falls apart. The production values are actually quite strong, and this is most evident in the opening sequences which are both eerie and suspensful as they reveal the historical background behind the current plot. However, once the current story gets underway, it's utterly predictable, which is a fatal flaw in a horror flick. You are left not-caring one whit for any of the characters, including the main ones. It was embarrassing to watch this movie, and it's occurred to me that's it's even embarrassing to be writing about it. If you're considering renting this one, don't waste your money, and if it's on TV for free, don't even waste your time.
Disappointed 
2005-09-28 - I was disappointed to get this movie for the price. However, I was pleased w/ the shipment. I strongly recommend anyone tempted to buy this to either save their money and rent it or try to get it really cheap. The movie just wasn't what I was hoping it would be.
WHAT THE HELL...
2005-09-20 - HELL'S GATE 11:11 is heavy on atmosphere and for a while, it maintains an eerie and involving plot. Unfortunately, it careens into such pseudoreligious paranoia, it defeats itself and ends up being nothing more than a muddled and incoherent mess. No name actors here folks and while it almost makes a stand in the seemingly unending spate of horror films coming out lately, it ultimately ends up being just another waste of time and celluloid.
This one almost had it...
2005-08-27 - As a fan of occult horror films I'm always on the lookout for a good one--they are few and far between. "Hell's Gate 1111" came pretty darn close. It had a great premise, and even though the storyline was a bit murky through the first half of the movie, it moved along and straightened out rather nicely toward the end. The problem with the movie was the end. It was much too abrupt and so confusing that one wonders if it isn't quite complete. Personally, I think the production company ran out of money and just slapped some alternative footage in to finish it off.
