Re-Animator is an American film series consisting of three horror films directed by Stuart Gordon and Brian Yuzna. Loosely based on the 1922 serialized short story "Herbert West–Reanimator" by H. P. Lovecraft, the films follow the exploits of Herbert West, the inventor of a serum that can re-animate deceased bodies. West is portrayed by actor Jeffrey Combs in all three films.

Unproduced sequels


Two unproduced sequels were Island of Re-Animator, an Island of Doctor Moreau-style story,[4] and the better known House of Re-Animator,[5] which would have featured Dr. Herbert West reanimating the President of the United States.[4]


Remakes


In 2017, an Italian version entitled Herbert West: Re-Animator was released with Emanuele Cerman as Dr. Herbert West.[6][better source needed]

A film by the name of Antihuman was set to release in early 2017 before being rebranded as Re-Animator: Evolution, with Johnathan Schaech in the lead role as Dr. Herbert West. The title was then changed to Herbert West: Re-Animator with a release date of December 15, 2018, and Schaech no longer on the cast list. It was described as "much darker, more thought-provoking, and more so grounded in science than the original film" and will keep in tune with the original Lovecraft story. However, no news has been released since late 2016.[7][8]
