Watch Beyond the Door For Free

I love this movie so much

People are voting emotionally.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I don't know what the hell is in people's heads giving this such a low rating. I am a horror movie fanatic, and I remember seeing the trailer for this movie as an 8 or 9 year old kid in the movie theater. I can still remember seeing the lead character vertically floating away from her bed and the subsequent nightmares I had because of that one scene. I did not see the movie itself until 2012, and it scared me as a 47 year old grown ass man! Here's why: if you know and love horror like I do (46 years and counting), everything does not have to be bells and whistles and what will appeal to the masses, such as in The Exorcist. Silence is golden in some instances, and there are plenty of moments in this underrated gem in which said silence speaks volumes. That silence, with seemingly nothing going on, gives the viewer the opportunity to THINK; to think about what has transpired (or about to transpire) and let the horror of that moment sink in. The background sound effects (and at times lack thereof) was truly horrific. One does not need to SEE anything at these particular moments because these moments were intentionally DESIGNED TO MAKE YOU FEEL AND ABSORB THE HORROR OF THE MOMENT. Consider this if you will-what's worse, seeing something happen in a flash and having an immediate reaction. or thinking, unhurriedly, about what has happened, what is about to happen, and WHY IT IS HAPPENING. To me, that is a far more horrific endeavor. The further we get away from the 70's the more spoiled people have become to seeing reactionary, formulaic horror movies that don't even give you chance to catch your breath for all the action and filler. Sure, they have a setting and a premise (some of them), but most don't have that atmosphere (and superb acting, for that matter) that they did in those days. Back then, these movies were a form of art with serious actors WANTING TO DO THE BEST JOB THEY COULD BECAUSE IT WAS IMPORTANT; THEY TOOK THEIR CRAFT (acting) SERIOUSLY. Today is representative of a bunch of spoiled, self-righteous "actors" who could care less about the craft of fine acting, for the most part. Why do you think the U.S. has done so many remakes of Asian horror movies? Because Asian horror movies have an abundance of what American-made horror movies lack and take for granted...ATMOSPHERE!

I watched this growing up in the late 80's, my uncle was a huge horror buff and I watched this one shortly after Exorcist when I was around 12 or 13, its really a mash-up of all the classics (Exorcist, Rosemary's Baby and some Omen) all my favorites, YES its a bit cheesy the dubbed English is hilarious at times especially the kids and their potty mouths. I loved the premise of the film, it had some haunting scores and just something mysterious about it, very nostalgic old school Italian horror, one of my personal faves... if you are willing to sacrifice a bit on the cheesy dialogues and story line, fans of Italian horror and films like Exorcist and Rosemary's Baby will enjoy this one, give it a shot...

..this one was so incoherent and silly that i can't imagine possible giving this more than 3 stars. the main reason i didn't give it 1 or 2, is because there were one or two well done "scary" scenes. minus the one or two decent scenes, overall, the plot, and development was so nonsensical it was jaw dropping. Satan's narration was laughable. if Satan and evil is responsible for plagues, and war, and suffering, he's fairly intelligent and has accomplished his goals in that department. if he even want's to take it to a personal level, and possess people, OK, ill drop common sense and believe it, a la the exorcist. at least the exorcist had a good vs. evil theme. the outcome, and overall "plot" of "Satan" in this film made me seriously feel like buying the guy a drink. hey, Satan, you need it more than i do. if you have a chip on your shoulder, and want to cause humankind suffering, at least have your evil plan make some sense and benefit you in some way. i'm not addressing the complete insanity and retardation of this film as eloquently as i would like, but seriously, even if you are a b-movie junkie, a huge horror fan, and don't mind rip off movies, steer FAR FAR away from this film. it may cause you to like horror films less. this was not fun on ANY level. if you want a ridiculous, hilarious, horror film that lacks sense, watch Death Bed: The Bed That Eats. that one is a winner on every level, this, a turd. on every level.

i have seen this movie back in the exorcist year...never figure out this movie then because it was all chopped up..saw it 5 time too..but all of you guys who saw it back in the 70's.get the code red version,uncut,unrated and more details about Dimitri encounter with Jessica and the devil.it's like let's make a deal with Satan and get jag in return.a Rosemary's baby vs The Exorcist.it's also resorted.don't get the VHS version also.back than i gave it 4 stars.but code red version save the story and received a 7 stars.there is a scene that was cut that explain more about Dimitri's mystery approach toward Jessica.now the repeated words,the child must be born was driving me crazy.the final scene will leave you questing.i also found the cans of green peas as a tribute to the devil films.yes,it's a ripoff of The Exoricst and i believe they paid warner bother 90 millions as Julietta mills quote on the extra features...
