‘Still stands as the best film-adaptation of any H.P. Lovecraft story to date… Jeffrey Combs’ phenomenal performance caps off the film, which stands as an expert blend of legitimate horror with a dark streak of humour ranging from wry, intelligent quips to good, old-fashioned splatstick’ ★★★★★ Starburst
Splatter heaven, its gore is exceeded only by its wit’ ★★★★ Washington Post

‘A gross-out slapsticker to rival The Evil Dead’ Total Film
‘This is one of the greatest films ever made. Period. It’s outrageous, erotic, gory, jaw-dropping, genre-busting, shocking and altogether exhilarating filmmaking’ ★★★★★ Pop Matters

Lovecraft’s terrifying tale – produced by Brian Yuzna and starring Jeffrey Combs (The Frighteners, Star Trek: Deep Space 9), Bruce Abbott (Interzone, The Bride of Re-Animator) and queen of horror Barbara Crampton (From Beyond, You’re Next) – in all its gory glory, alongside a bloody bucketload of special features.

Brilliant, if somewhat deranged, medical student Herbert West (Combs) arrives at Miskatonic Medical School and is not impressed by his professor’s outdated views on death. West has his own outlandish theories and when he discovers a serum that can re-animate dead flesh, all hell breaks loose.
Roping in fellow student Dan Cain (Abott) and his girlfriend Megan Halsey (Crampton), their shocking experiments work all too well with horrific results, and it isn’t long until the campus is overrun by the undead, placing the faculty and fellow students in devastatingly disturbing danger.
Bring your collection back to life with the dead good Re-Animator Dual Limited Edition, another must-have set from Second Sight Films.
