31 Days of HELL-O-Ween 2020
From Beyond (1986)
I'm always a sucker for H.P. Lovecraft, being a fan of his writing, as well as the shared mythology of Elder Gods and Outer Gods beyond spacetime. This is the late, great Stuart Gordon's Grand Guignol version of of the H.P. Lovecraft short story of the same name (Gordon also co-wrote/directed H.P. Lovecraft adaptations of "Re-Animater/Herbert West–Reanimator" and "Dagon"). Of course, there is lots of blood, gore, body horror, breasts, and erect pineal glands to be found in the movie, as well.
I found the movie to be good, gory fun. After all, with an opening line like "It ate him... bit off his head... like a gingerbread man!" you kinda know what you're in for...
