i gave em life..!!
wowww..not this is really some film..i had heard a lot about the film and really wanted to see it..finally i bought the dvd from amazon..and the film was worth every penny i’’d spend on it
allrite..the film is abt a crazy scientist overwhelmed by the idea of bringing the deads back to life ..another crazier egoistic,... celebrety scientist who forms a perfect nemisis to our anti hero,its also about a dead pan room mate who makes out with college dean’’s daughter in his free time that is when he not getting blackmailed by herbert west or getting beaten up by zombies and then u have barbera crempton as the deans daughter..and her affinity to wearing clothes
besides there is green serum and lottsa gore to keep u entertained if the charecters them selves are not enough..
this is the kida film u ll either love or hate..cause its one such film wich doesnt takes its self too seriously..its a film which is made to entertain and thats exactly what it does..so if u ll looking for some thought provoking film ..stay away from this one..
this is the first out and out campy film with such a A class acting..jeffery combs as herbert west steals the show..he is just right for the role..nobody else wud have done it better..the rest of the cast supports real well..
now this is a film made in 1985 with a very low budget so dont exect mind boggeling special fx..the makeup fx are clumsy and stupid for this time..but when this film was made..they were way ahead of its time..
some scean in this film are real fun ..esp..the decapitation scene and the most infamous head scene..
besides the dvd’’s extra feature are very good..as it comes with interviews with brian yuzuna and stuart gordan..where they reveal that they even considered casting Arnold schwerzeneger..for one not so important role,then u have audio commentery by jeffery comb,bruce abbot and barbera crempton..which added with the films publicity stills explains how much fun they had while making the film..
believe me fellas..this is the best comedy u ll come across cause it never feels like a comedy and still u keep laughing when u watch it..- Rated 4 out of 5
Dr. West makes living zombies with luminous serum.
In the late 1980’’s, I remeber seeing this film. The original version and the longer and most grossest version. I remember how much fun it was to watch. This review is for the 94-minute version on VHS where most of the violence and gore have been cut out, but the film has been lengthened too. Jeffrey Combs is a cold-hearted doctor who makes a decision to accept a room-for-rent with a couple, Dan (Bruce Abbott) and his girlfriend (Barbara Crampton, (Days of Our Lives [1983], Young and the Restless, Guiding Light [1993-1995], The Bold and the Beautiful [1995-98]). Dan Cain is a medical student. Dr. Herbert West is like a modern-day Dr. Frankenstein. He has invented a luminous serum that when injected (kind of the same has D.O.A. [1940]), except it was poison) into someone dead, the person comes back to life as a fighting zombie. Peter Kent plays the first nude male zombie who puts up a fight. Peter Kent was also Arnold Schwarzenegger’’s double (and still is) in the film, Terminator (1984). Lots of fun nudity and grossness. Note: The soundtrack is NOT from Psycho (1960), but it is a similar music score in some parts. Followed by BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR (1990) and BEYOND RE-ANIMATOR (2003).
