7/10
Nostalgic and Entertaining
28 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Gordon (Graham Skipper) returns to his hometown with his girlfriend Margot (Brea Grant) to meet his estranged brother John (Chase Williamson) to close the video store of their missing father and pack the videotapes and the DVDs. John finds the key of the office that is closed and decides to snoop around with Gordon. They find the VCR board game "Beyond the Game" and they decide to play with Margot. Soon they learn that the game must be played until the very end; otherwise they will die.

"Beyond the Gates" is a nostalgic and entertaining movie that follows the style of many films from the 80's and 90's (specially "Jumanji"). The story is flawed and, for example, Derek dies without any further consequences. But fans of the genre will not be disappointed. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): Not Available
