Central Cinema and Knoxville Horror Film Fest are excited to welcome one of our very favorite horror movies back to the big screen… it doesn’t get much better than this.

RE-ANIMATOR is the ultimate 1980s body horror experience, a joyously grotesque peer of Mary Shelley’s FRANKENSTEIN, Lucio Fulci’s THE BEYOND, and Sam Raimi’s EVIL DEAD. Herbert West (Jeffrey Combs) is a new student at Miskatonic University. He also moonlights as a mad scientist, intent on perfecting a serum that “re-animates” corpses. Soon, everyone wants a piece of the action, including an evil professor and his army of neon-slimed deadites. With berserker direction from Stuart Gordon, career-defining roles from genre icons Barbara Crampton and Combs, and a scene of two adults chasing an undead cat in a basement, RE-ANIMATOR isn’t just a masterpiece of the horror genre—it’s a masterpiece of life.

“Splatter heaven. Based on the sci-fi novel by H.P. Lovecraft, RE-ANIMATOR’s gore is exceeded only by its wit.” – Washington Post
