Movie Reviews of Re-Animator (The Millennium Edition)
Movie Review: Far better than what I expected
Summary: 4 Stars
After seeing From Beyond for the very first time recently. I was encouraged by a few amazon friends to give this a watch. Some even claimed it was better. Well I agree with every word and I'm glad to add this into my horror collection. Re Animator is packed with over the top gore and dark comedy.
Jeffrey Combs stars as Herbert West. A mad scientist hell bent on bringing back the dead with a formula he created. His formula causes the subjects to go off in a berserker rage. His subjects also include animals, this wild attempt gave birth to one of the funniest scenes I have ever seen in horror.
This film is over the top fun even though I felt my intelligence was insulted at times. The acting was pretty solid and I enjoyed every single minute. The only gripe that I have which is minor, is the film isn't scary at all. I found it to barely be creepy. However, this is definitly a film I'm glad to have and horror buffs should definitly check this out. If you're very serious about your horror and can't tolerate dark comedy at all. I recommend a rental at most.
Summary of Re-Animator (The Millennium Edition)
Stuart Gordon's adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's Herbert West: Re-Animator puts a Night of the Living Dead spin on the classic Frankenstein story. Jeffrey Combs furrows his brow and bugs his eyes as the preternaturally intense Herbert West, a maverick medical student whose gory, gooey experiments cause bloody corpses and body parts to jerk to life. Bruce Abbot is the studious roommate drawn into his extracurricular experiments, which soon involve the dean's daughter (the frequently naked Barbara Crampton) and the college's cadaverous, calculating star professor (David Gale), who literally loses his head over a battle for West's discovery. In this world, that's only a minor setback. Charged with sick gallows humor and a ghoulish gallery of undead beasties, Re-Animator, like Evil Dead II, is one of the most inspired and inventive--and funniest--horror films of the 1980s. Combs, Abbot, and Gale reunite for the almost-as-entertaining sequel Bride of Re-Animator. --Sean AxmakerHorror DVD Video
