From Beyond (film)

From Beyond is a horror film directed by Stuart Gordon and released in 1986. From Beyond was Gordon's second H. P. Lovecraft adaptation, based on the short story of the same name, and was written by Dennis Paoli, Gordon and Brian Yuzna (all of whom had previously worked on Re-Animator). It starred Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton and Ken Foree, with minor roles from Carolyn Purdy-Gordon and Ted Sorel.

Synopsis

The film deals with a pair of scientists (Combs and Sorel) who are trying to stimulate the pineal gland with a device called The Resonator. An unforeseen result of their experiments is the ability to perceive creatures from another dimension, who proceed to drag the head scientist into their world. He later returns as a grotesque shape-changing monster and preys upon the others at the laboratory.

Awards

The film score by Richard Band won the award for Best Original Soundtrack at the Catalonian International Film Festival in Sitges Spain.
