The Wraith and The Gate

[dmeister]

I ran across The Wraith and The Gate at Best Buy for less than $6 a piece, for anyone interested. Unfortunately, they're both full-frame with no extras, but I can't complain too much for $6.

I bought The Wraith at BB a few weeks ago, but I haven't seen The Gate there yet.

The german releases of Wraith and Gate are in anamorphotic 1,85:1 Widescreen. They have both a trailer as extra. Both flicks were released by Marketing.

I got the Gate, but didn't see Wraith.They also have Halloween 2 for under $6.(for those who didn't see my earlier thread):)

I checked for H2 the other day, but they didn't have any. :(

The H2 discs got grabbed up quick here also. They might get more, or they might not. They still have The Gate and The Wraith in amaray cases now.

I'll go tomorrow and case the place for Gate, H2 and hopefully the Wraith for me:)

They filmed the Wraith here in Tucson.I guess some stunt drivers were killed so they can't film chase scenes in that area anymore.

I read on Morbius from Don May Jr that these titles were being shopped around and everyone including Anchor Bay, Synapse and Blue Underground turned them down, so it wound up in Platnimum DVD? I am shocked Anchor Bay turned doen THE GATE. Never saw it, people say good things but if Anchor Bay turned it down, it much suck royal!

Man, thats sad, I think the end credit dedicates this film to the stunt man and the cameraman who got killed. Tragic.

"the wraith" has a cool soundtrack

Both The Wraith and The Gate are your typical low-budget 80s horror/sci-fi fare. I live for this stuff. Still waiting for so many other low-budget 80s classics to come out on DVD, like Night of the Creeps, Scarecrows.
