Review of Beyond Re-Animator (2003) by Katie K — 24 Jul 2008
Another demented classic from exploitation hero Brian Yuzna. This sequel to re-animator, is vastly superior to Gordon's original.
We find Dr West in prison, he's been developpng & perfecting new ways of bringing back the dead to life. Assisted by a young doctor (who witnessed his sister getting killed by a corpse, reanimated by no other than West) they turn the orderly prison into a funfair of gut munching, demented fun (while ironically enough trying to avoid attetion)....
The film features a balls to the wall, wild as hell jail break, delirious prosthetic fx by the fx guru Screaming Mad George, the super sexy pin up slut Elsa Pataky, who goes totally fly wheel loose towards the end (INCREDIBLE performance by her BTW), and even a severed zombie penis fighting with a rat, and as you can expect from Yuzna plenty of gratuitous, heart warming unapologetic sleaze.....
Lovely stuff!
