Product: From Beyond: Vampires [VHS]
Rating: 2.0
Not Very Faithful
A film adaption of H.P. Lovecraft's short story "From Beyond", there is little in this movie that will attract Lovecraft's readers. The scientist is portrayed as a man who was into kinky sex (and as anyone who has ever read Lovecraft knows, he would NEVER have included such details in his stories), and uses the addition of a police officer and a lady who seems to become possessed by the spirit of the dead man to eat up the majority of the plot. Great if you're into gory movies or Lovecraft, but this is really a throwaway.
