    Portal to Hell (2025) 🎬 Richard Kind voicing a hell demon is elite casting. Add the great Keith David and a cool concept, and I was so excited for this one. Sadly, neither gets enough screen time, and it loses its way so badly it feels way longer than its 93min runtime. #100DaysOfHorror #71 #Horror

    #293: PORTAL TO HELL (2025) dir. Woody Bess I missed this one when it played last year at the Forest City Film Festival in London, so I was stoked to see it pop up at the Revue. Funny and surprisingly sweet-natured horror comedy built around the rock solid foundation that is Keith David

    I wonder if there's any tie in to the 2015 short film PORTAL TO HELL. Which starred the late Roddy Piper, Keith David's co-star from the John Carpenter classic 1988's They Live.

    I'm watching PORTAL TO HELL. I broke my own rule and saw the ratings it got from people, suggesting it got mixed reviews. But the movie co-stars Keith David, so I'm already willing to give it a favorable review for that reason alone.

    Third spooky movie of the season was a screening of indie film “Portal to Hell”! A small scale off-beat comedy of the kind that doesn’t get made too often anymore. Not all of it worked for me but I liked what it was trying for. And I like that it had Richard Kind voicing a demon youtu.be/V6pn-A3d5Ak
