In 1985, Stuart Gordon directed his first feature film and created a sensation. It was "Re-Animator," a smashing success based on a horror story by H.P. Lovecraft. The film delivered as many laughs as it did screams making it a cult classic among horror fans and winning a Critic's Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. Now, Gordon is back with his co-writers Dennis Paoli and William J. Norris and composer/lyricist Mark Nutter to turn 'Re-Animator' into a musical for the stage.
