Today marks the thirtieth anniversary of the premiere of Re-Animator. Based on the episodic novella by the acclaimed writer H. P. Lovecraft, the horror-comedy film follows a mad scientist's attempts to return life to dead bodies with a special formula. It features Jeffrey Combs in the role that made him famous as the mad Herbert West. Combs would return to the role for each of the two sequels and would act in many other undead-themed films as well as playing Lovecraft several times.
