It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Re-Animator is easily one of my favorite horror movies. It's like "Ghostbusters" with zombie-like creatures, but with a lot of blood and scariness (definitively not a movie for kids). Some visual effects are cheesey (like the cat resurrection) but the writing is incredibly clever. Personally, I don't feel to considere Re-Animator a B-Horror movie. B-Horror movie do usually have bad visual effects, an incredibly boring script and a lame story (like Troll 2). I'm happy to see the movie didn't get forgotten and it is still known nowadays.Final verdict 7/10 (good). Despite some flaws, Re-Animator is a good horror-flick. It successfully captures all the charm of the movies of the 80s. You should not miss it.

Re-animator can be considered to be a part of many genres. It does meet the definition of a cult film, a horror film, a sci-fi film and even a comedy film. The movie has a somewhat similar plot to that of Frankenstein. But instead of creating a monster from virtual scratch, a young medical student named Jeffrey Combs is motivated to bring dead corpses back to life. He quickly becomes friends with another medical student, whose girlfriend's father just happens to be a doctor. The re- animations do not go well at first, the revived corpses are not able to think clearly and they try to kill him. This movie is has a solid R- rating and it is one of the most graphic and gory movies I have ever seen. This movie takes on gore like the movie The Evil Dead with the main goal of making it so gory that it is humorous. Jeffrey quickly moves from re-animating animals to re-animating people, even though they are not quite the same re-animated as they were when they were alive. The corpses are re-animated by injecting a needle with green serum into the back of the head, sometimes with highly violent results. Then the movie gets odd and humorous giving i it's cult and comedy rating. A re- animated corpse tries to rape a girl but his severed head cannot do it. The same corpse with the severed head tries to control it's body and it crashes into things. I did enjoy this movie, it was a very unique movie and it was very fun to watch. But however, I would not recommend this film to those who do not like graphic movies. The movie was a very pleasant surprise and it is very funny.

Re-Animator is one of those movies I always heard about but never got around to watching. Having finally seen it (and its sequels), the only thing I can say is that I wish I would have seen the series a lot earlier!Promising medical student Daniel Cain is assigned partners with Herbert West, a peculiar young man obsessed with the idea that death is a reversible process. West has developed a re-agent that he believes will lead to resuscitation of tissue after death, although when he is given the opportunity to try it out on a perfect specimen, things do not go as planned. What follows is a descent into gory chaos that also happens to be a whole lot of fun to watch.I certainly understand why this is considered a cult classic, because while it's not for everyone, fans of over the top gore (a la The Evil Dead and Dead-Alive) will find plenty to love here. Jeffrey Combs was flawless in his performance as West, who has become a horror movie icon in his own right... It is worth mentioning that I found nothing at all wrong with the sequels, which is rare in any film genre, but especially so in horror - but that's a review for another time.
