Seriously cool news if its true. Stuart Gordon's film from 1986 From Beyond. Is this the best of the Lovecraftian films out there? I think so although its been awhile since I've seen it.

I've been waiting a long time for this. Although it lacks the greatness of Re-Animator, it's a worthy companion piece.

I used to love watching this in the 80's. Barbara Crampton in leather - Woof, woof!

Yeah they use to run this one regularly on TV. Not sure if there is a different cut of the film or if the reel they found contains any additional footage. This has become my most anticipated DVD of the year in one fell swoop.

The only scene that is still missing is one I cut out myself. It occurs early in the film when Crawford goes to tell Dr. Pretorious that the Resonator is working. As Pretorious leaves his bedroom Crawford hears moaning inside and looks in. He sees a beautiful naked young woman trussed up S&M style. In her mouth is a large three-penny nail that has been pounded through her tongue. Crawford frees her and pulls out the nail. She throws a coat over her shoulders and runs out. I cut this scene because I thought the MPAA would never allow such perversion, and now every other kid has a pierced tongue. The lesson I learned is to never censor myself. The good folks at MGM are still looking for this scene.

This is definitley one of the titles I am most looking forward to having in my dvd collection as well. I've been a fan of this movie ever since I first saw it in the theaters.

Unbelievable news!

Definately good news considering I have yet to see it. I was going to finally rent it two weeks ago, and then realized that I had waited too long. Both local rental places had gotten rid of their VHS copies during their "Spring cleaning" session that they finally got around to doing. They also ditched a couple other lesser known ones as well. I wouldn't have been as pissed if I could have found them in the "for sale" bin. I imagine they were confiscated by the employees or another rabid horror fan. I was going to purchase a used copy online, but now I'll just wait for the uncut DVD.
