Review of Bride of Re-Animator (1990) by Kenny S — 08 Jul 2011
While there are plenty of fun scenes and moments, I have to agree with the general consensus that this film is an unsatisfying continuation of the original. It is a little too long and drag at times. Dan and Herbert have been busy in the eight month since the previous film, and are now working on not just reanimation of dead tissue, but of creating life.
It is VERY Frankenstein...in a good way. But Dr. Hill's head is shoehorned into the plot for little reason, other than he ends up with bat wings coming out of his head and can fly. For the most part he detracts from the good bits, which is a shame because in the first film he WAS one of the good bits.
I can't say its too terrible, and it may be enough for the average horror fan, but it just doesn't move as swiftly as the first.
