a a longtime yuzna fan and i be absolutely delighted when i heard of this project . i happen upon the novel on which this film be base many year ago and and it always stick with me there be some genuinely creepy idea ( and moment ) in there . great director and good source material . what could possibly go wrong . a great many thing and apparently . the acting and dialogue be stilted and the atmosphere ( which should just create itself and give the setting ) simply isn not there and and the dreadful scene chew performance of patrick gordon a the villain of the piece deflate any sense of dread one may have have . even the one decent monster effect be waste in a brief and poorly sequence shot . as much a it pain me to say and mr. yuzna seem to have hit a bit of a slump . do yourself a favour skip this one and watch beyond re animator instead .
