I honestly feel that I didn't need to see 2 and 3.

The first one was by far the most fun, interesting and entertaining. 2 took the ideas a bit too far and was a bit tiring at times and 3 was just very silly.

I also felt that I didn't need to see 2 and 3, and for over a year I did not. I finally got around to watching them and I liked them, particularly the second, which feels like the first one much more than the third. It isn't as good, though the girl is possibly slightly less annoying, but it is worth a shot.

Cheers mate!

I have never understood why Bride, has always been overlooked as inferior to the original...Most of the original cast is back, and it is completely entertaining as the first...I feel they are ultimately equal, in terms of entertainment and quality... Yes, undoubtedly worth a watch!!! It's a great film...I agree though, Beyond is not so good...

Well, if nothing is worse than the third one then you might as well give it a look

Bride is my favorite Re-animator film. Beyond is ok, really fun and silly, but not as good as the first two.

I liked it better then the first. West gets more screen time. We see him alone doing experiments. I wish I could talk to horror directors and writers. The reason the films are great is because of West but they keep making someone else the main character. Focus on West and it doesn't matter how crappy your plot is. He will get you through it and trick everyone into thinking it was the best film they'd ever seen.

But yeah, Watch Bride. It is a great monster movie and West gets his most screen time. People think the originals plot was amazing. It was good but not anything special.

Saw it Thursday night and enjoyed it. Not quite as good as the first, but still entertaining. Sorry you didn't like Beyond Re-Animator - made me laugh! :)

No. Retread of everything you already saw, only lamer and what original content there is doesn't really go anywhere.

I can't recommend this one. It's pretty average. I say skip.
