Guardian of the Abyss (1980)

In the mysterious world of antiques and arcane artifacts, Michael Roberts, a seasoned antiquarian, stumbles upon a captivating old mirror at an auction. He persuades his friend Laura Stephens to hold onto her newly-acquired treasure, despite the unsettling interest of a peculiarly fervent stranger. Little does Michael know, this mirror carries an occult power that is about to entwine his fate with that of a desperate young woman named Allison. On the run from a clandestine cult devoted to the demon Choronzon, Allison seeks refuge in the unsuspecting Michael's car, setting off an unlikely alliance. As Michael delves into the mirror's dark secrets, he discovers its potential to summon the malevolent entity, Choronzon, a revelation that sends icy tendrils of dread down his spine. However, the danger escalates when Charles Randolph, the sinister leader of the demonic sect and a master hypnotist, sets his sights on retrieving both Allison and the mirror. His ominous intention: to perform a sacrificial ritual that would bring forth the powerful devil himself. In the face of unimaginable evil, Michael finds himself ensnared in a chilling battle against time and terror. His growing affection for Allison fuels his determination to shield her from the cult's clutches. As the hypnotic pull of the mirror grows stronger, can Michael save Allison and thwart Randolph's malefic plan? The enthralling tale of 'Guardian of the Abyss' unfolds, teetering on the precipice of love, danger and the supernatural.
