 "Standing watch at the gateway, Scream Factory will unleash The Sentinel on Blu-ray next Tuesday. To give fans a look at the new HD transfer of the film from the interpositive, we have clips and a trailer from the upcoming release. The Sentinel Blu-ray: "When a beautiful model, Alison Parker (Cristina Raines, Nashville, The Duellists), rents an apartment in a gloomy New York brownstone, little does she realize that an unspeakable horror awaits her behind its doors...a mysterious gateway to hell. Alison likes her eccentric new neighbors, so it comes as a shock when she's told that, except for a strange old priest, she's the only tenant. Based on Jeffrey Konvitz's best-selling novel, this contemporary gothic chiller features amazing special makeup effects by the legendary Dick Smith (The Exorcist, Little Big Man) and an incredible assemblage of stars including Chris Sarandon, Ava Gardner, José Ferrer, John Carradine, Burgess Meredith, Beverly D'Angelo, Jerry Orbach, Jeff Goldblum, Tom Berenger and Christopher Walken. Director Michael Winner (Death Wish) comes up with something to terrify everyone in this spine-tingling exercise in supernatural horror."

You know how you have certain scary movies that you watched when you were young and they left an impression on you that you never forget no matter how old you are? This is one of those movies for me. This is a must have movie for my collection.  |

It's such a good movie, I posted it twice.  Seriously, it's a great movie. I had forgotten how good it was, definitely underrated. |

It doesn't help that the only trailer for the movie is pretty lousy. This is one movie I think would be a good candidate for an updated version as long as they stay true to the story line. I loved Burgess Meredith in this and it had a lot of famous actors from back in the day in it. Beverly D'Angelo, who I don't think was well known yet, did something that was really shocking and perverted considering the genre and time it was released, I'm amazed it got past the censors.  |

The scene with Beverly D'Angelo certainly shocked me and the wife, lol. Had forgotten all about that.

I remember liking this movie enough when I finally got around to watching it years ago. I wasn't floored by it though. I would have to watch this again though since it's been awhile. I do like the fact a lot of old time actors are in this, like Burgess Meredith and Ava Gardner. So, yeah, a rewatch is in order. I do remember liking the ending quite a bit though.

This is a very good movie, but not one I like enough to own.
