The Refrigerator is a 1991 supernatural comedy horror film starring Julia McNeal, Dave Simonds and Angel Caban. It was written and directed by Nicholas Jacobs. The film tells the story about a couple that moved into an apartment in New York with a refrigerator that contains the portal to Hell.

Background

The first draft of the script was written in 1987 and the film took four years altogether to make. The Refrigerator was filmed within New York in America, by production companies Connexion Film Productions and Avenue D Films. As an independent production with a limited budget, the filmmakers decided not to get the film rated by the MPAA and as a result it was released straight to video and promptly disappeared.

It was first seen in Germany at the June 1991 Munich Film Festival. On 25 September 1992, it premiered in New York and during 1993 it had a theatrical release across Germany via Impuls-Film Hans-Joachim Flebbe Co. The film was released on VHS in Germany via Warner Home Video on 25 February 1993. Later in the UK, on 10 July 1995, it had a limited release on VHS via the studio Mia (Missing in Action).

The film is similar to the Filipino horror film Shake Rattle and Roll's episode: Pridyider, which was also remade in 2012, also known as Fridge.
