40 years ago, Stuart Gordon’s film Re-Animator was released. As it toured markets and festivals, it caused controversy and fits of dismay, and its combination of horror and humor captivated critics and audiences, forging a legend that endures to this day. Loosely adapting H.P. Lovecraft’s story “Herbert West: Re-Animator,” the film moves the action to the 1980s to tell how, after failed experiments in Europe, scientist Herbert West travels to the United States to work at Miskatonic University. There, he will continue his dangerous research, the goal of which is to obtain a formula that will allow him to revive the dead.
Now, Re-Animator is coming to Curtas Festival do Imaxinario experiences for a terrifying night to celebrate Halloween, combining haute cuisine with a gourmet menu designed by chef Miguel Mosteiro (Gastrolab Arousa), as well as a film and animation screening in the theater by Taller de Teatro Clámide and Nydia. Get ready for the fright!
