Review of Resurrected (1989) by Sean C — 03 Jan 2009

When I think of The Resurrected, two things irritate me: 1.) This movie was made in 1992 and I just NOW found out about it in 2008, and 2.) With a plot and storyline so damn original like this film has, why isn't it more popular? With that said, The Resurrected is about a woman who hires a PI to investigate her husband and find out what kind of "experiments" he is doing in his cabin deep in the woods.

As expected, the deeper the PI and the wife dig, the more unsettling things they discover including bringing the dead back to life, people being eaten, and many abominations to be seen. The Resurrected is an incredibly original film based on the H.

P. Lovecraft story "The Curious Case of Charles Dexter Ward" and features some very well done acting (including the always awesome Chris Sarandon as the mysterious husband), and a story so enthralling that the film just came and went in its 106 minutes.

I really enjoyed this movie, and more people need to find out about it. My only beef would have to be the kinda silly visual effects, but rest assured, the prosthetic and mechanical effects are awesome.

Great movie.
