La Nona: Porta [hd] (1999) Bluray 1080p

Dean Corso was a man who lived in the dust of centuries, a "book detective" with a soul as dry as the parchment he appraised. His reputation was built on a cold, clinical indifference to the stories within the pages; to him, books were merely objects of transactional value.

The deeper Corso fell into the mystery, the more he realized he wasn't just a detective; he was a participant in a ritual centuries in the making. The "Ninth Gate" wasn't just a page in a book; it was a threshold.

Legend claimed that only three copies survived the Inquisition's fires, and that together, they held the key to summoning the Prince of Darkness. The "Ninth Gate" wasn't just a page in

As Corso moved through the rain-slicked streets of Toledo and the ancient libraries of Paris, the atmospheric weight of the task began to warp his cynicism. In each city, he found that the three books were not identical. The woodcut illustrations—the "Nine Gates"—bore subtle, terrifying differences. In one version, a figure held a key in the right hand; in another, the left. Some were signed "L.C." for the printer, Aristide Torchia, but others bore the mark "L.U.F."—Lucifer.

Death followed in his wake. Owners of the books were found murdered in macabre tableaux, mimicking the very illustrations Corso was studying. And then there was the Girl—a nameless, green-eyed stranger with impossible strength who appeared whenever Corso was cornered, protecting him with a ferocity that wasn't entirely human.
