“You haven't done this on… people?”

Based on a series of short stories by H.P. Lovecraft, Re-Animator achieves a perfect blend of gore and deadpan humor. When an odd medical student discovers a serum that brings the dead back to life, the results are messy and the special effects outrageous as the dead wreak havoc, and the mad scientist journeys further into madness and depravity. Winner of a special critics’ prize at Cannes, Re-Animator is a uniquely absurd masterpiece of camp horror.
