Here's a description of Devils Gateway from Atlas International Film's website: "1973. A prisoner kills himself in Australia's most notorious and dangerous prison. His death is shrouded in mystery. The warden on duty that night also kills himself, after leaving a frightening message in his home. After an exhaustive inquest, the prison is closed down. ¶ 30 years later, the secret will be revisited by a television production crew that plans to shoot a pilot for a new program. The team is lead by Megan Samuels, an ambitious and power-hungry producer and presenter who lacks any kind of belief in the paranormal. Megan sees her show as her one big chance to make it in television. Accompanying her are: Jessica, her assistant; Chris, the cameraman; Mark, the sound engineer; Derek Rant, the psychic advisor; and most importantly, David Collins, the son of the warden who committed suicide. ¶ As the group delves into the ghostly unknown, strange things start to happen. They are being hunted by an unseen enemy, and it soon becomes a frightening race to get out alive. There is only one problem - prisons are designed to keep people in.... ¶ This thrilling story plays out over one horrible night. As daybreak comes, only one person will walk out alive...."
