Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Horror classic!.
From Beyond was the followup film to the fantastic Re-animator and is just as good as that film, like Re-Animator From Beyond is based on a story by the brilliant horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. The acting here comes courtesy of two of Re-Animator's best actors Jeffrey Combs, a man that is well known in the world of B-Movies and Barbara Crampton the scream queen that we all remember from the infamous 'head' sequence in Re-Animator. The dvd was finally released last year and it was about time, I could ... Read More
Rating:  - More gore than sense, but entertaining if you can stand the camp.
Fan's of exloding heads and melting dogs rejoice! From Beyond takes graphic bodily transformations to a level that even J. Carpenter must envy. People burst out of other people, heads are twisted off, eye stalks force their way through foreheads, and floppy elongated fingers grope attractive young women!
The story is nonsense, the characters are ridiculous, their motivations totally unbelievable, but this is still a must see film for fans of classic horror.

Rating: - An Awesome Horror Flick That Isn't More of the Same!
Crawford Tillinghast (Jeffrey Combs) is a scientist assisting Dr. Edward Pretorius (Ted Sorel) with a very bizarre experiment. The pair have built a machine that stimulates the mysterious pineal gland resulting in the ability to see bizarre life forms the human eye cannot. This proves to be extremely dangerous, as one of the creatures devours Pretorius and leaves Crawford to take the rap. In search of answers, the D.A. and the police bring the gorgeous Dr. Katherine McMichaels into the picture. A brilliant ... Read More
Rating: - If You Loved Dagon or Re-Animator, You'll Want To See This...
The Re-Animator movies may be marginally better but From Beyond is still brilliant. Combs is my favorite actor- the only good thing in at least one bad movie I have that I actually fell asleep in when he was off-screen for a bit.
I just love the way he can deliver the most outrageous lines totally straight-faced with utter belief and sincerity. He is the PERFECT mad scientist. You really BELIEVE this man is just psychologically off enough to do whatever he chooses to.

Rating:  - Good for the 80's - but not really kitchy . . .
I would have probably really enjoyed this in the 80's - but now. . . not so much. It's a little outdated - and the effects and acting are somewhat poor. I can't believe people have rated it so high - maybe it's nostalgia.
