Review of From Beyond (1986) by D M — 04 Jul 2014
A professor and his assistant build a machine (a "Resonator") which can stimulate pineal gland. In doing so pleasure and sights beyond what humans have known can be experienced. The professor crosses over into a realm on visible when the pineal gland is stimulated, but his assistant is believed to have killed him, but has gone mad.
A doctor researching the case gets the assistant to rebuild the Resonator. Once it is again functioning they experience horrors and pleasures as the professor returns in his new form. Many great lines can be found in this one (namely, "Humans are such easy prey").
A really good film based on a Lovecraft story brought to us by the same folks who did Re-Animator a year earlier.
