From Beyond
1986 · TMDB 6.5
Directed by Stuart Gordon
The Resonator, a powerful machine that can control the sixth sense, has killed its creator and sent his associate into an insane asylum. When a psychiatrist becomes determined to continue the experiment, she unwittingly opens the door to a hostile parallel universe.
Why it matters
Stuart Gordon's lurid adaptation of Lovecraft, in which a resonator machine awakens the pineal gland and lets something slither through. Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton commit fully, and the practical effects are still astonishingly wet.
