BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR Synopsis:

Eight months after the Miskatonic Massacre, Doctors Herbert West (Jeffrey Combs) and Dan Cain (Bruce Abbott) are back – working as volunteer medics in a Peruvian civil war. But death is only the beginning: once home, West resumes his experiments, this time with a twisted new goal – to create life from spare parts and bring Dan’s late fiancée back as the ultimate re-animated creation.
