To continue my Body Horror theme I (sort of) had going on this week and following yesterday’s list of My Top Ten Body Horror Movies, I’m reblogging my review of what is probably the most messed-up movie I’ve reviewed on this blog: Stuart Gordon’s From Beyond. Get your pineal glands ready!
Bloody hell I can’t find a good poster for this movie…
From Beyond (1986)
Directed by Stuart Gordon
Based on From Beyond by H.P. Lovecraft
Starring:
Jeffrey Combs
Barbara Crampton
Ken Foree
Ted Sorel
Carolyn Purdy-Gordon
Running time: 80 minutes (original), 85 minutes (unrated)
Plot Synopsis: (via Wikipedia)
From Beyond centers around a pair of scientists attempting to stimulate the pineal gland with a device called The Resonator. An unforeseen result of their experiments is the ability to perceive creatures from another dimension that proceed to drag the head scientist into their world, returning him as a grotesque shape-changing monster that preys upon the others at the laboratory.
Before I Start…
This review will be full of SPOILERS, especially in the pictures. But I HAVE to include the pictures – this movie is mental.
This is the first movie I’m reviewing for my Halloween Horror Fest

An 80s favorite of mine 🙂
It does seem like one you’d like. 😉 It’s a weird one! 🙂
😀
I barely remember this one, except for a few essed up parts. I should watch this again for Halloween. Thanks for spotlighting the Lovecraft madness. This would be perfect for my BOOBS, BLOOD & THE BEAST: 31 Nights of Horror.
Yes! You should do this one! Or…… Society! 😉
I would read it, but since it’s not spoiler free, I think I’ll skip it 🙂
I think you’re safe to read it as you’ll never watch it. ;-p
You put me onto this. Talk about some weird shit!
Hehe. I remember. You’re… Welcome? 😉
