Goofs

(at around 36 mins) When the hero goes looking for the Orc in his house, he's wearing a tank top and no hat. He goes into the basement, and fights the Orc, but now he's wearing a hat and shirt. He kicks the unconscious Orc down the stairs (from the basement to the main floor) and then is back to wearing a tank top and no hat.

Guardian of the gate

Former soldier John Norton buys a ranch in the middle of nowhere (shot in Utah) and is surprised to find that his new neighbors are an elf princess and an army of Orcs chasing her. He happens to live next to a gate to another world and is destined to become guardian of the gate. Not an easy task, as evil creatures are coming through every day. Since the Orcs do not know guns, though, they think Norton is a sorcerer with magic weapons, but when he defends the princess, the Orcs summon a powerful ally to strike back: a fire-breathing dragon...

Despite the low budget, simple countryside setting and unknown actors, this was surprisingly good fun. The script has a great sense of humor (for example when Katie gets a gun to fight the Orcs because they wrecked her car), nobody takes it too seriously, and the overall feeling is like watching an 1980s trash classic rather than a new digital production. Nothing wrong with that!
