Stuart Gordon and Jeffrey Combs live in person!

If legendary horror scribe H.P. Lovecraft were alive in 1986 and witnessed this unapologetically gorocious modernized adaptation of his work, he would have committed suicide. But for anyone interested in relentlessly splurting anthropoid goop and pre-CGI full-contact bone-wrenching de-evolution, this film is a 3000-foot boner. FROM BEYOND manages to increase the already hideous firings of the author’s brain to a fever-inducing overdose of offworldly abominations, grisly mutations and subhumanoid cannibalizations. Directed by Stuart Gordon directly after his berserk horror comedy RE-ANIMATOR (also starring Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton), this entry is decidedly more grim and hateful but no less hyperactive, as two scientists and a very pissed-off cop (Ken Foree of the original DAWN OF THE DEAD) square off against diabolical S&M-tinted monster science in a rigorous battle against the drippiest forces of the unknown.
