Stuart Gordon's Re-Animator is a campy cult classic that's funny and gross, based on H.P. Lovecraft's novella. This film is a mix of black comedy and grisly horror as it follows a medical student who creates a serum that can bring the dead back to life. Re-Animator stands out with its outrageous gore, witty dialogue, and outrageous characters, especially Jeffrey Combs's iconic performance as the offbeat Dr. Herbert West. Initially controversial for its shocking visuals and dark humor, the film has since become a beloved cult classic, especially among fans of 1980s horror.
