Re-Animator Streaming.
Movie Title: Re-Animator Re-Animator is available for streaming or downloading. |
The best horror movie ever made, period. For me anyway, this has to be my personal favorite. Forget all that Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer junk. You wanna see a REAL horror movie? Rent this one. Skip it if you’re squeamish, though–trust me on this.
The plot is taken (loosely) from an HP Lovecraft tale, “Herbert West, Re-animator”. The taglines kinda say it all. Dan Cain is a young medical student dating the Dean’s daughter, who takes in a roomer and meets up with West, brilliantly played by Jeffrey Combs. West has discovered a “reagent” that will bring the dead back to life, except the serum still needs lots of work. When the dead people wake up, they do not seem happy at all to be brought back, and in fact have the tempermant of a grizzly bear on PCP. Added to the mix is the creepy Dr. Hill (who looks like an uglier, way creepier version of James Woods), who clashes with West and also has an icky obsession with Dean Halsey’s daughter. (the attraction results in the movie’s most outrageous scene that I’m sure you’ve heard about, which gives new meaning to a slang term for oral sex that..well, you’ll figure it out).
This movie is scary, gory, original, and above all, lots of fun. Just when you think it can’t get any more over-the-top, it does. Combs steals the show as West, who looks like a cartoon version of a brainy young scientist with huge hornrimmed glasses. I appreciate his performance more each time I view the movie. He gets most of the best lines, such as when Dan yells at him when a hysterical Meg has found her pet cat, Rufus, in West’s fridge with a broken neck, that if he found the cat that way as he claimed, West could have left a note. “A note saying what? ‘Dan: cat dead. Details later’?” he dryly replies.
Stuart Gordon made other great movies later on such as From Beyond and The Pit and the Pendulum (also with Combs) but he never topped this underrated, underseen gem.
A word of caution-make sure you are renting the unrated version, as the R version has most of the gore cut out and the last 20 great minutes reduced to 5 or so. The R rated version has some scenes not in the unrated one that you might find interesting if you are a big fan (I rented it by accident) but really, the unrated version is the way to go.
I compared the special features in this release with the one released by Elite (millennium edition). Most of them are the same. The only real notable difference is that this one has a new 70 minute documentary. I’m sure that’s worth the effort of rebuying another 2-disc set. If you have the Elite version, you may want to pass on this.
