From Beyond
The Resonator, a powerful machine that can control the sixth sense, has killed its creator and sent his associate into an insane asylum. When a psychiatrist becomes determined to continue the experiment, she unwittingly opens the door to a hostile parallel universe.
Why it matters
A visceral plunge into cosmic body horror that pushes practical effects and atmosphere to nightmarish extremes.
- Stuart Gordon and Jeffrey Combs reunite to transmute Lovecraft’s eerie "From Beyond" into a wild, grotesque symphony of flesh and fear.
- The Resonator’s mad science premise unspools into a parade of mutant horrors, showcasing Rob Bottin’s legendary practical effects at their squirm-inducing peak.
- A heady blend of science fiction and supernatural terror that captures ’80s horror’s appetite for body horror and otherworldly menace.
- Perfect for fans who crave visceral, tactile fear and appreciate horror as a hallucinatory gateway to cosmic dread.
