It was only last month or so that I finally was able to sit down and watch THE GATE from beginning to end. Needless to say, I enjoyed the hell out of the movie and went to buy the sequel on Blu-ray only to find (gasp) the second film wasn't on Blu-ray!

As sad as that moment was, both you and I can cheer up as today we have news that THE GATE II is finally hitting Blu-ray for the first time ever via Scream Factory this February.

You can check out the full rundown on the disc, including the new special features below and then make sure to hit us up and let us know what you think of the film in the comments below or on social media!

Rundown via Scream Factory:

Loyal fans of cult film director Tobor Takacs (The Gate, I, Madman, Sabrina the Teenage Witch) know well the terrifying supernatural thrillers THE GATE and GATE II, based on characters created by Michael Nankin (Battlestar Galactica, Hell on Wheels). GATE II stars Louis Tripp (The Gate) and Pamela Segall (King of the Hill, Californication). On February 27, 2018, SCREAM FACTORY Home Entertainment is proud to present GATE II on home entertainment shelves. Available for the first time on Blu-ray, this definitive release features new 2K transfer, new interviews, and insightful extras. A must-have for movie collectors, horror enthusiasts, and loyal fans, GATE II is available for pre-order now at ShoutFactory.com.

This supercharged sequel to the horror classic The Gate comes alive with unearthly creatures, heart-stopping action, and incredible special effects.

Gate II picks up again with Terry, the teenage sorcerer who summons beings from the other side whose powers can be used to grant any wish. Unfortunately, before the Gate closes again, a "minion" – a tiny disciple of Satan himself – manages to slip through to our dimension. When the creature is kidnapped – all hell breaks loose.
