Review

"The Resurrected did leave me with a bit of a bitter sweet feeling. Sweet because the movie is a ton of fun. It has the genre charm that was found in a bunch of horror movies from the late 80's and early 90's. There are some really great practical effects used throughout. One in particular is of what I believe to be the resurrected remains of a person who has dissolved into some weird looking creature. It's hard to explain with words, but The Resurrected does a great job explaining it visually. The bitter part is that this is O'Bannon's second, and ultimately last film as a director. That's a real shame because much like he did in Return of the Living Dead, O'Bannon shows he has a great style and feel behind the camera." - Chris Coffel, Bloody Disgusting
