The Stuart Gordon Love Thread#1

You gotta love a guy who goes from the Chicago "thea-tah" to being maybe the one and only director in America who genuinely aspires to be a B-movie director. And now, with RETURN OF THE RE-ANIMATOR in the works, it is time to come to praise this one of a kind artist whose grubby, gruesome and hilarious movies are true originals:

THE REANIMATOR
FROM BEYOND
DAGON
KING OF THE ANTS
STUCK
CASTLE FREAK

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

So far I've only seen the Re-Animator trilogy, From Beyond, and Dagon, and I've loved every one of them. They can be campy and humorous at time, but they really are great.

A fabulous quote from Re-Animator (and quite a scene): "I must say, Dr. Hill, I'm VERY disappointed in you. You steal the secret of life and death, and here you are trysting with a bubble-headed co-ed. You're not even a second-rate scientist."
