 A hidden horror gem February 23, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
From Beyond is only available at the moment in America so you need a multi region dvd to play it. I first seen this film about 15 years ago on a three films for 2 rental and I loved it. It was made in the mid 80s which in my opinion the best cheap horrors were made. What I mean by cheap horror is excessive blood gore and violence with a token pretty girl. The greatest example of these films is Re-animator. This film is by the same director (yuzna) and has the same lead role the incomparable Jeffrey Combs.
From beyond is about a mad scientist who invents a sort of grand set of tuning forks that allow us to see all of the horrible creatures that suppossedly float around us. The problem is they can now see us. The scientist and his assistant (combs) are attacked by the creatures combs escapes but the scientist has his head bitten off. Combs is accused of the murder and is sectioned a radical young doctor decides that he is telling the truth and accompanies him back to the house were it all happened she is given a trusted body guard the legendary Ken Foree(Dawn of the Dead)who seems intent on spoofing Shaft. The problems start again straight away and we have another haunted house shocker on the cards. Not to give away the ending but it is fantastic no hope and no cure. Buy it if you love horror films.
 Forgotten Lovecraft classic! April 30, 2005

There were some fantastic 'b' movies made in the 1980's.
Thankfully, a few of them have received dvd transfers...unfortunately, this one (aside from a rare Japanese release) hasn't...yet!
The partnership behind 'Re-animator', Stuart Gordon and Brian Yuzna AND the stars including Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton re-united for this classic of modern horror based on an H.P. Lovecraft story.
Ken Foree of the original 'Dawn of the dead' and the late, great Ted Sorel also star in this twisted tale of a mad scientist who discovers a sixth sense and an alternate world through his invention of a machine, created for those very purposes!
Unfortunately, his discovery is not without side effects...for him or for those trying to stop him from playing god.Some great special effects and make-up alongside an underated cast make this a dvd must-have...all we need now is a dvd must-release!
