‘RE-ANIMATOR’ comes home on Blu-Ray this Fall
There are just some films that I get excited about when I hear they are getting a high definition release and this is one of them. Stuart Gordon’s cult classic Re-Animator will be released this September on Blu-Ray! Like many of you that grew up in the 80’s, this was one of those films that you just had to check out based on the cover. Relive your neon green nostalgia!
From Blu-Ray.com:
Image Entertainment will release on Blu-ray Stuart Gordon’s Re-Animator (1985), starring Jeffrey Combs, Bruce Abbott and Barbara Crampton. The Blu-ray will be available for purchase online and in shops across the United States on September 4th.
According to Image Entertainment’s official listing, the Blu-ray release of Re-Animator will be “packed with bonus features (existing from earlier DVD releases), including audio commentaries from the film’s director, producer and cast, interviews, extended scenes, galleries, and more”.
Herbert West (Combs) is obsessed with the idea of bringing the dead back to life. Experimenting with a glowing green fluid, he successfully reanimates dead tissue. Unfortunately, the dead are uncontrollable and difficult to subdue. Dr. Carl Hill, West’s instructor, is determined to steal his secret and take all the credit for the discovery. Herbert isn’t willing to give it up so easily. No matter what the consequences are! Stylishly directed by Stuart Gordon (From Beyond), this film adaptation of the short story “Herbert West: The Reanimator” is a non-stop gore fest filled with wit and humor.
