| Looks very good  . I met Harlan Ellison in 1994 at a Pontins in Norfolk. One of the more surreal celebrity encounters I have had! A great writer and also wonderfully entertaining raconteur who always says what he thinks. Loved this film when it first came out, excellent choice for a set. |

|  Very nice. In my defense, cult titles are all the rage and if someone is doing Re-Animator anything is possible. Too bad that more people either didn't read this thread or were not moved enough to respond. On the plus side, I looked it up and actually found the full film on youtube. I didn't watch the whole thing again because some parts were boring/dated and that whole white face makeup society, I think I forgot that altogether. However the influence of this film toward the Mad Max/Road Warrior series is very obvious now, as I see it again. It may have been an April's Fool joke, and the plot is more than a little weird and offensive, but you can see it's early place in the "end of the world" category of films. As for that ending, quite sick. And unfortunately I still laughed. "She certainly had marvelous judgment, if not particularly good taste." Somebody might make a card set of it yet.  |

| I had read the original story before the movie was released, and went in ready to be thrilled, and not even minding kissing my three bucks goodbye, or whatever it cost to see a movie way back then in the Stone Age, when all the movie projectors ran by burning coal. I was so dissapointed in the movie. I couldn't believe how they handled one of my all time favorite stories. I have never seen it since. |
