Richard Brake is brilliant at being immensely creepy. His work in Rob Zombie’s films have all been memorable. Even his role in Halloween II in which he just died after a vehicular accident was a deeply disturbing death scene. In his new film, The Gates, Brake takes on this role and embodies it very well as a serial killer who has returned after execution to reap havoc.
The film also stars John Rhys-Davies who takes on the role of a paranormal investigator who is able to see folks through photography after the subject is dead.
The synopsis for The Gates goes like this:
A serial killer has been sentenced to death by electric chair in London in the 1890s, but in his final hours, he puts a curse on the prison he is in, and all of those in it.
We are really excited to see that Brake is playing an undead serial killer. It is a very strange one off
The Gates arrives on digital and DVD beginning June 27.
