With a 1080p AVC encoded transfer in 1.78:1, Beyond Re-Animator's Blu-ray offers a colorful, detailed presentation albeit with some grain and compression issues. Solid contrast and black levels enrich the visuals, while CGI elements appear slightly dated. Overall, an impressive upgrade for fans.

Audio: 67

Beyond Re-Animator's DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track offers a dynamic, front-heavy mix with clear dialogue, enjoyable score, and effective—though minimalist—surround channel usage. The track features clean, undamaged audio without noticeable dropouts, enhancing the immersive experience despite limited speaker-to-speaker movement.

Extra: 78

The Blu-ray extras for "Beyond Re-Animator" offer a comprehensive look into the film's production, featuring insightful commentary by Brian Yuzna, a Dolby Digital 2.0 interview with composer Xavier Capellas, detailed interviews with key personnel, and entertaining supplemental materials such as a music video and trailers, all presented in high-definition.

Movie: 50

Lionsgate's release of Beyond Re-Animator on Blu-ray offers chaotic yet entertaining gore and humor, continuing Dr. Herbert West's grisly experiments in a prison setting. Despite Jeffrey Combs' strong performance and some effective special effects, the film suffers from budget constraints, a monotonous setting, and inconsistent acting, making it a hit or miss experience.
