The Beyond (1981) – Fulci’s Gates of Hell & Italian Horror Legacy - video Dailymotion

marinacipressoferreira

Lucio Fulci’s The Beyond (1981) is widely regarded as one of the crown jewels of Italian horror, a surreal nightmare that blends gothic atmosphere with shocking gore. Set in a cursed Louisiana hotel built over one of the Seven Gates of Hell, the film unfolds as a dreamlike descent into madness, filled with haunting imagery and unforgettable set pieces.  Often compared to Fulci’s City of the Living Dead and House by the Cemetery, The Beyond also shares thematic resonance with Dario Argento’s Suspiria and Inferno—films that embrace dream logic, supernatural terror, and striking visual style. Together, these works define the golden era of Italian horror, where atmosphere and shock value combined to create enduring cult classics.  In this video, we’ll explore how The Beyond fits into Fulci’s “Gates of Hell” trilogy, its influence on later horror cinema, and why it remains a cornerstone of Euro-horror for fans worldwide.

00:08:41You can't imagine the effect that double-digit inflation is having on house.

00:09:12Hi, Larry.

00:09:14Arthur, her eyes.

00:09:21Arthur, where's her, where's her, where's her, where's her?

00:09:24Where's that doctor?

00:09:26Arthur!

00:09:27He's on his way.

00:09:59Okay.

00:10:05This man needs to get to a hospital.

00:10:07I'll clean up the wound first. Have you got any water?

00:10:10Well, I'm sorry, but till the plumber comes, I'm...

00:10:12I'm afraid I can't get you any.

00:10:14Then we'd better move him right now.

00:10:16Give me a hand, will you? Take the legs. Gently.

00:10:20Okay. Oh, right.

00:10:22Thank you, Doctor.

00:10:22It's okay.

00:10:23How can I, uh, check up on him?

00:10:25Ask me at the hospital. John McCabe.

00:10:31We're off to a great start.

00:10:34Let's just hope there isn't any lasting damage.

00:10:36I sure would like to know how a man can fall on the scaffolding six feet wide.

00:10:42Liza.

00:10:44Hey, look at this picture.

00:10:54Weird.

00:11:10I wasn't aware you, uh, that you'd already scored a client.

00:11:15Client?

00:11:17There isn't a soul here.

00:11:19I guess it must have been Arthur.

00:11:22Yeah.

00:11:24No.

00:11:43I'm sure you're in it.

00:11:44Nooo, you do know.

00:11:59Hey, is anybody home?

00:12:02Just a minute.

00:12:03Coming.

00:12:07Good morning.

00:12:09You the plumber?

00:12:10Hi.

00:12:10Joe, right?

00:12:11Yes, ma'am.

00:12:13What's the trouble?

00:12:14No, thank you.

00:12:15I'm afraid I can't tell you.

00:12:17Nothing comes out of the faucets, and yet somehow the basement's flooded.

00:12:20You tell me.

00:12:22The whole basement?

00:12:23And how?

00:12:24Well, let's take a look.

00:12:25Okay.

00:12:26Follow me.

00:12:27This way.

00:12:27We can go.

00:12:31I hope it isn't too serious.

00:12:34Watch out.

00:12:35The stairs are real slippery.

00:12:36I'm an old sewer rat.

00:12:56Well, here it is.

00:12:59How long do you think it'll take?

00:13:03It'll take as long as it takes.

00:13:31Martha.

00:13:32I made this little pathway to the far end.

00:13:35just for Joe.

00:13:41Thank you, Martha.

00:13:48Well, I'll go take that look.

00:13:52Where's Arthur?

00:13:54He's upstairs,

00:13:56tidying up the rooms.

00:13:58We're doing our best to help Miss Merrill.

00:14:00Yeah, I know, thank you.

00:14:03Listen, I'll be going into town later.

00:14:07Would you please make me out a list

00:14:08of all the things we need?

00:14:10Yes.

00:14:10Okay?

00:14:11Don't worry.

00:14:57I'll be right back.

00:15:03I'll be right back.

00:15:42I'll be right back.

00:16:32Arthur!

00:16:35What are you doing in my room?

00:16:39I was looking for keys.

00:16:53I was going to clean up the rooms, but some of them are locked.

00:17:01Well, I'll just have to find those keys, Arthur, won't I?

00:17:05Or else we'll simply call in the locksmith.

00:17:08In the meantime, could you go up on the roof and check the chimney?

00:17:13I think it's clogged.

00:17:19I heard a car drive up before.

00:17:23Was it Joe?

00:17:25Yeah.

00:17:27Why?

00:17:27Bye-bye.

00:17:31Bye-bye.

00:17:43Bye-bye.

00:17:47Bye-bye.

00:19:27Joe!

00:19:33Joe!

00:19:39Joe!

00:19:46Arthur?

00:19:49Arthur?

00:19:56I don't understand, Emily.

00:19:59How do you...

00:19:59Don't worry.

00:20:00I know the way by heart.

00:20:02And there's always Dickie here.

00:20:04Come, Liza.

00:21:54I'll show you the way.

00:22:16Emily, why did you say I must give up the hotel?

00:22:20I can't explain it to you.

00:22:24Just take my word for it.

00:22:27Go back to where you came from and hurry.

00:22:29Leave this place.

00:23:08What's the matter?

00:23:11What's the matter?

00:23:24I don't know.

00:23:26Okay, okay, okay, but you're on your own with this one.

00:23:31I'll warn you, though, when I get back, I'm going to give him a autopsy.

00:23:37I got some figures for you.

00:23:38I got some figures for the same thing.

00:23:38Oh, really?

00:23:39Who did for it?

00:23:40Uh, the banger.

00:23:41Oh, the banger.

00:23:42Hey, by the way...

00:23:44Hey, by the way...

00:24:12You're looking for it.

00:24:19But you're trying to find it.

00:24:21You're looking for it.

00:24:57I'm on my way, honey.
