VFX artists praise a forgotten horror movie The Gate from the '80s for mastering a key VFX trick from The Lord of the Rings 14 years before the films.
VFX artists have praised the 1987 horror film The Gate for using a similar trick seen in The Lord of the Rings movies 14 years before the fantasy trilogy was created. The Gate follows two young boys who accidentally release a malevolent supernatural entity from a massive hole in their backyard. The film was praised at the time of its release, though it hasn't garnered the same popularity as cult classics of its time.
