    Join Greg and Karen as they discuss the 1985 horror film "The Re-Animator", loosely based on the short story "Herbert West–Reanimator" by H. P. Lovecraft.

West's experiments lead to chaos and mayhem, as the reanimated corpses become increasingly violent and uncontrollable. "The Re-Animator" is a beloved cult classic, praised for its over-the-top gore, dark humor, and campy style. It is also notable for its special effects, which were groundbreaking at the time. In this episode, Greg and Karen will discuss the film's plot, characters, themes, and legacy. They will also share their thoughts on the film's special effects, soundtrack, and overall impact. And of course, no discussion of "The Re-Animator" would be complete without a cocktail! Greg and Karen will be enjoying a "Miskatonic Reviver Cocktail," a custom drink inspired by the film.
