From Beyond (1986)

Written in 1920 and first published in 1934, Lovecraft’s short story. The story is told from the first-person perspective of an unnamed narrator and details his experiences with a scientist named Crawford Tillinghast. Tillinghast creates an electronic device that emits a resonance wave, which stimulates an affected person's pineal gland, thereby allowing them to perceive planes of existence outside the scope of accepted reality. These characters would be minor characters in Lovecraft’s The Case of Charles Dexter Ward or aka Reanimator.


Stuart Gordon’s body horror film is loosely based on the short story by Lovecraft and stars Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree and Ted Sorel. From Beyond centers on a pair of scientists attempting to stimulate the pineal gland with a device called the Resonator. An unforeseen result of their experiments is the ability to perceive creatures from another dimension that proceed to drag the head scientist into their world, returning him as a grotesque shape-shifting monster that preys upon the others at the laboratory. Gordon made use of medical advisors to be sure that the actions taken by the doctors and nurses of the film followed proper medical procedures.
