Where we shelve this film

Mad science

Brilliant experiments, catastrophic side effects. The lab is open.

Zombies & the undead

The dead return, shuffling or sprinting, rarely with good intentions.

Splatter & splatstick

Practical effects, grotesque excess and occasional pitch-black slapstick.

Our genre tags are curated classifications. These descriptions explain the shelf, not the film’s plot.

From the editors

Medical student Herbert West experiments with bringing the dead back to life. Re-Animator turns that premise into an evening for fans of macabre humour and graphic bodily horror. Our recommendation from the mad-science shelf, with a strong stomach advisable.

Our guide’s house opinion

LAB COAT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

Our splattery lab entry point. Tonight gets a thorough stirring.

An affectionate house opinion, not an audience score or an age rating.

Screen on. Reality off.
