What happens

Through the Fire is a 1988 American horror film directed by Gary Marcum (as G. D. Marcum) and starring Tamara Hext, Tom Campitelli, and Randy Strickland. It follows a young woman in a Texas town who, with the help of a police officer, begins a search for her missing sister; in doing so, the two uncover a cabal of dilettante Satanists who have conjured a powerful demon. Filmed in Fort Worth, Texas in 1986, Through the Fire had a limited screening there in late 1988. It was not distributed in the United States until 1997, when it was released on VHS under the alternative title The Gates of Hell Part II: Dead Awakening, falsely suggesting the film to be a sequel of City of the Living Dead (1980), a film by Lucio Fulci that was released in North America under the title The Gates of Hell.
