looking for a title and the DVD if possible
 
I need your help.... I have searched IMDB looking for a movie from most likely the 70's I thought it was " Don't go in the basement" but the plot isn't right. The main subject was a woman named "Sarah" or " sara" she was trapped by these shrunken little creatures in a house, they were afraid of only light.... they torture her by striking at her from dark corners... in the end she uses a flash bulb to sacre them away for as long as possible.... I was 8 - 10 when I saw this... what an impression it had for a B movie.... Can someone help me find it? thanks

Try looking through some of the older threads, I remember soebody asking about a movie that sounds the same awhile back....cant remember the name for the life of me though, sorry.


Or, it could be The Gate:)

"Don't Be Afraid of The Gate in the Dark Basement"

I caught that one when I was a kid too. Surprisingly scary shit. Is it on DVD? The only movie that scared me more when I saw it at that age was Hellraiser. Neither one's all that appropriate for a seven year old come to think of it. But, anyway, it is I believe Don't be Afraid of the Dark. The Gate is from the 80's I believe. I was under the impression that the Gate was a kid friendly romp in the same vein as the Monster Squad.

you are right it was a kid friendly romp( the Gate), I also agree as A kid only Amityville horror and then Hellrasier scared me the same way.... by the way anyone seen "Saturday the 14th" lately is it on DVD yet? That was funny as a kid anyway. Oh and no " Don't be afraid of the dark" is no where to be seen on DVD.... Yet... there is information available out there about a re-make supposed to be made in 2005.... but nothing concrete that I could find. But it was an ABC made for TV movie so now I guess Disney must own the rights and since disney has been twitchy lately well who knows if they will ever re-release it... Here's to hopeing!!!:)

I guess I should let the joke die....

Well, the "Gate" joke was a good joke. I dunno why, but it was.
