Tomorrow is Halloween, so I thought it was a good time to cover The Ninth Gate, which is a weird film about a rare books dealer who is hired to find The Nine Gates,  a book that is alleged to have been written by Lucifer. As you can imagine, it's a film rife with occult symbolism and ritual. In Esoteric Hollywood II, Jay Dyer devotes an entire chapter to this film. Like Eyes Wide Shut, we see a secret society of rich weirdos LARPing with rituals and orgies. Yet the message of the film seems to rest on Johnny Depp's character, Corso, and not with the shadowy underworld of wealthy Satanists.

⚠️ Spoilers lie ahead!
