A Group Of Friends Unleash Something Evil In The Horror-Thriller ‘Gateway’

The supernatural thriller Gateway is coming to digital platforms next week, from Dark Sky Films, and we’ve got the trailer. In the film, “Mike is a low-level drug dealer in debt to a ruthless supplier. When he and his gang set up shop in an abandoned house, he thinks his problems are solved. But a mysterious locked door inside the house and growing discord within the gang brings old feuds boiling to the surface.
