    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The opening Charlie Grimille hanging was a played by ear sequence with the rest of the cast and crew during its initial shots, Directors/writer Lofing pitched to Cluff and the actor Jesse Cross of not informing the rest of the cast and crew of the sudden prop malfunction they had scripted in, leading everybody to believe Cross had actually just hung to death, the genuine screams, horror and frantic rushing of the crowd encapsulated exactly what Lofing had envisioned for the beginning death sequence and maintained the very first few shots as the film's opening.
    • Goofs
      At the end it is revealed that Pfeifer is Alexis and Charlie's daughter. She is a senior in high school Charlie died 20 years before so she would of have to been conceived before he died for her to be his daughter. Therefore Pfeifer was a 19 year old senior. She was born almost 7 months after her father died. Her mother made sure to hold her back to stay with Reese and exact their revenge.

    Time is Irreversible and Life Is too Short to Spend Watching Low-Quality Films (Like This One)!
    I saw "The Gallows" with low expectations, but at least expecting to see a decent horror movie, based on the IMDb User Rating (4.3). However, the film is awful in every aspect: the storyline is poor; the twist is nonsense and ridiculous; the screenplay is terrible. The camera of this cheap "found footage" genre is a pretext to produce low quality films with low cost. In this movie, there is no explanation for the use of the handy cam. Sometimes I question why I see flicks like this to the very end since time is irreversible and life is too short to spend watching low-quality films (like this one)! My vote is one (awful).

    Title (Brazil): "A Forca" ("The Gallows")
