Dan, fascinated by West's research, agrees to smuggle him into the hospital morgue with predictable results.

Comments: An unquestionable classic! For me it's still the best horror-comedy ever made. A true classic of the genre, "re-animator" is a sure bet with it's impressive special effects, great acting, great premise. A classic. I won't give anything else away, see it know!
