I guess it is the selling point of a film that normally wouldn't hold any interest, if not for the name attached.
From Beyond is a goody. I haven't seen for yonks, but I do own it on blu disc, just haven't gotten around to watching it. Did you enjoy it deb?
Yeah. It is misleading for fans of the actors who see the movies to see their favourite actors and I often wonder why some movies have more popular actors in small cameo rolls instead of giving them the main star roles and it might have something to do with cost for all I know but I have seen a few Horror movies that had famous actors appear in them for a few minutes but the rest of the cast is full of lesser known actors and you wonder why they didn't use them for the lead instead. I was disappointed 'The Crow: Wicked Prayer' didn't use David Boreanaz as the main star especially since most articles I read about it made it sound like he was going to be the lead and I thought it would be fun to see Angel play the Crow but they used him as the villain. I like 'From Beyond' and we have watched that a few times and have it on DVD and it is written and directed by the same person behind the 'Re-Animator' and 'Honey I Shrunk the Kids' movies and has two actors from 'Re-Animator' in it and have you seen the 'Re-Animator movies Toasted Cheese and what do you think of those? I liked the franchise and wish we had got more than 3 movies. Have only seen the first Crow movie.
I like the first 2 Re-Animator films, though they are not amongst my favorite horrors of the 80's. I have always preferred From Beyond. I didn't find The Re-Animator lives up to much on a re-watch, after the first time I saw it, whereas I have always enjoyed FB on repeat viewings so much more. Must be the atmosphere and presentation of it that I like better.
