The 4K restoration by Ignite-Films & Eagle Rock Pictures is being theatrically released through American Genre Film Archive. The restoration is also available for Home Entertainment at the Ignite Films website, where it will be exclusively available all through this year.

You can choose from four physical media editions, exclusively at Ignite-Films.com, all of which include Newly Produced Bonus Features and Legacy Bonus Features.

Director Stuart Gordon’s Re-Animator shocked audiences with his blend of grotesque horror and dark humor and became an instant cult classic upon its release in 1985.

The classic horror film follows Herbert West, a brilliant yet unhinged medical student who creates a serum that reanimates the dead with horrifying consequences. Jeffrey Combs stars as Herbert West, alongside Bruce Abbott as Dan Cain, Barbara Crampton as Megan Halsey, David Gale as Dr. Carl Hill, and Robert Sampson as Dean Halsey.

“I’m excited about the 40th Anniversary 4K UHD Blu-ray release of Re-Animator — it looks great! Especially if you have a big screen! An excellent restoration, it is like seeing it for the first time again. Stuart Gordon would have been super proud, and so happy that Re-Animator is still connecting with horror audiences and that this restoration is re-animating the movie in all its glorious madness – just as Herbert West intended!” exclaimed Brian Yuzna, Producer.
