Miskatonic Monday - Herbert West: Re-Animator is restored to life on BluRay tomorrow

Lights out, everybody.

On Miskatonic Mondays, we celebrate the "weird" fiction of HP Lovecraft and the genre of otherworldly horror it spawned.

In the States on Tuesday, September 4th, Stuart Gordon’s 1984 classic Re-Animator will be hitting the stores with a newly restored HD BluRay version.

Herbert West (played by Jeffrey Combs) is obsessed with the idea of bringing the dead back to life. Experimenting with a glowing green fluid, he successfully reanimates dead tissue. Unfortunately, the dead are uncontrollable and difficult to subdue. Dr. Carl Hill, West’s instructor, is determined to steal his secret and take all the credit for the discovery. Herbert isn’t willing to give it up so easily, no matter what the consequences are!

Image Entertainment has not specified the disc extras other than to state it will be packed with bonus features (existing from earlier DVD releases), including audio commentaries from the film’s director, producer and cast, interviews, extended scenes, galleries, and more.
