About this product

Product Information

Based on a novel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte (THE CLUB DUMAS) and coscripted by director Roman Polanski, THE NINTH GATE was Polanski's first feature after a long break following the release of 1995's DEATH AND THE MAIDEN--in between, there was an aborted project that faltered when designated star John Travolta opted out. Dean Corso (Johnny Depp) is a cynical rare books dealer hired by Boris Balkan (Frank Langella), a scholar specializing in books on Satanism, to recover the only two remaining copies (in addition to the one owned by Balkan) of THE NINE GATES OF THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS, a 17th-century text with cryptic illustrations supposedly contributed by Lucifer himself. Corso's investigation takes him to Europe, where he is pursued by a strange girl (Emmanuelle Seigner) who seemes to assume the role of his guardian angel: Bizarre deaths inspired by the book's morbid illustrations befall all those who come into contact with the book--except himself. This occult mystery should satisfy fans of subtly creepy, stylish tales of the supernatural along the lines of Polanski's own ROSEMARY'S BABY.

  • Heavy Duty!

    The Ninth Gate is a fantastic movie. It has all the qualities of a much more elaborite, high cost movie. The scenery was terriffic, and the actor selection was absolutly perfect! I think the movie would be enjoyed more, by a viewer that had some background in this area of the occult. In that, it may be a little overwhelming to some. All-in-all, it was expertly directed, the plot was perfect, but, if Johnny Depp doesn't quit smoking in his roles, he will be dead in a year. I would highly reccomend this movie. I gave it the highest ratings. If you are still interested, in this subject, I would also reccomend, "The Ancient Book Of The Dead", "Complete Simon's Necronomivron", "Grimoire Of Honorius III", and "The Book Of The Sacred Magic Of Abramelin The Sage". After that, re-watch "The Ninth Gate"! Enjoy, Bob - Robert F. Myers

  • POLANSKI’S BABY

    Polanski’s suspenceful mystery is enhanced by the noir photagraphy,the film score [especially the concluding vocalise] and Depp’s low keyed role .
