Naturally, West will reanimate some dead bodies, they'll go haywire, his medical school room mate will get involved and things will get even worse. If horror films have taught us nothing else, we do know that experiments with the dead always lead to trouble, and that holds true in Re-Animator. After leaving a university in Zurich in disgrace (because his mentor was a reanimated fiend,) he has taken up residence at Miskatonic University, moved in with a fellow medical student who is dating the dean's daughter, and resumed his macabre experiments. He and his mentor developed a serum that gives life to dead tissue. Lovecraft, and it follows the exploits of one Herbert West, doctor, student, and scientists. Still, this movie spikes the gore scale, is wildly inventive, funny, and best of all, well acted (yes, good acting in a gory horror movie!) The story is very, very loosely based on a short story by horror writer H.P. Nor does it even begin to hint at all the goodies packed into Elite Entertainment's Millennium Edition of this DVD! The Movie I have to assume you've never seen this movie if you're reading this part of the review, so first let me say that I am so jealous! The first time watching Re-Animator is sort of like your first kiss, or your first car, or your first. Lovecraft's Re-Animator in a nutshell, but it doesn't even begin to explore the wonderful world of the decapitated walking dead, independentantly powered intestines, reanimated cats or glowing green goo that make Re-Animator one of my favorite horror movies of all time.
