80's are definitely golden era for B production gore horror. And this is one of the brightest examples. Based on Lovecraft and painfully stupid. Although I had awesome time watching it, I can not rate it higher than 5,5/10. But last 15 minutes, and especially the scene in which sweet sexy Meg is sexually abused by severed head, deserve straight 10. Scene is hilarious. :D5,5/10 for movie overall9/10 for last 15 minutes10/10 for naked Barbara Crampton and David Gale's head

"Re-Animator" is enough to make you rethink everything you ever thought about horror movies. How is it that such a puerile and disgusting film can be so much fun to watch? It's probably because it doesn't even attempt to take itself seriously. What we have is a zombie flick with generous hints of dark humor thrown in for good measure: a classic combination that could easily satisfy even the most devoted fans of Dario Argento or George A. Romero. And why shouldn't it? The satire in this film is beyond plentiful, not the least of which comes in the form of obscenely over the top gore effects.This movie is scary, gory, original, and above all, a lots of fun. Just when you think it can't get any more over-the-top, it does. Combs steals the show as West, who looks like a cartoon version of a brainy young scientist with huge horn-rimmed glasses. I appreciate his performance more each time I view the movie. He gets most of the best lines, such as when Dan yells at him when a hysterical Meg has found her pet cat, Rufus, in West's fridge with a broken neck, that if he found the cat that way as he claimed, West could have left a note. "A note saying what? 'Dan: cat dead. Details later'?" he dryly replies."Re-Animator" is the kind of film that doesn't revel in its goriness; it completely depends on it. It's probably not something that fans of the original Lovecraft story would appreciate, nor should they; the film version is so far removed from the source material that the title is practically the only thing establishing a connection. I think that, for maximum viewing pleasure, you just have to go with the flow and leave behind any notions of good taste or decent principles and immerse yourself in pure horror delight.Overall rating: 8 out of 10.

Silly but entertaining.Re-animator started reasonably well, with a fair amount of intrigue and suspense. It was even plausible, to a degree. After a point, however, it becomes rather silly, with things thrown in clearly just for shock and gross-out value. Plot becomes more and more implausible and ridiculous the longer the movie goes on.Visual effects are okay (but for the over-the-top attempts to make things as unnecessarily gory as possible) but, strangely, the sound quality is quite poor. You'd think this is the one thing everyone gets right, but here it leaves a lot to be desired. Most of the time it sounds like the actors are talking from a distance away. Plus the stereo is all over the place, sound coming from the wrong side speaker at times!Performances, from a cast of unknowns, vary from okay to abysmal.A hit-and-miss movie. Not a must-see, but not a total waste of time either.
