Above is the 2012 promo for the fantastic Re-Animator: The Musical. This fantastic show for Halloween is back on stage, in Los Angeles, with new performers and new songs.
My friend Ken Hudson Campbell, memorable for his roles in Armageddon, Groundhog Day, and the sitcom Herman’s Head, will be playing the medical school Dean. The music is by the ever brilliant Mark Nutter. This is really a fantastic cast and technical crew. The effects are created by same team who did the original movie!
Daily Dead has the entire story.
