Why you might like this:
Director Stuart Gordon's 1985 horror comedy Re-Animator is a wildly entertaining blend of visceral gore and offbeat humor, anchored by Jeffrey Combs' hilariously unhinged performance as the brilliant yet deranged scientist Dr. Herbert West, whose obsession with reanimating the dead leads to shocking and darkly comedic consequences.
Re-Animator is a 1985 American comedy horror film loosely based on the 1922 H. P. Lovecraft serial novelette "Herbert West–Reanimator". Directed by Stuart Gordon and produced by Brian Yuzna, the film stars Jeffrey Combs as Herbert West, a medical student who has invented a reagent which can re-animate deceased bodies. He and his classmate Dan Cain begin to test the serum on dead human bodies, and conflict with Dr. Carl Hill, who is infatuated with Cain's fiancée and wants to claim the invention as his own.
