Re-Animator

"[to Dan, trying to convince him to assist in his research] We can achieve every doctor's dream! You'll be famous, and live lifetimes."

"Do you agree he's dead now? [picks up the dead cat and drops it with a clunk] Do you agree that he's dead now?"

"[regarding the dead cat he is reanimating] Don't expect it to tango; it has a broken back."

"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."

"You'll never get credit for my discovery. Who's going to believe a talking head? Get a job in a sideshow."

"I am not through here! I told you I have a theory: overdose!! [wields two full reagent hypodermics]"

""How can you teach such drivel? These people are here to learn and you're closing their minds before they even have a chance!" [Herbert west to Dr. Hill after pencil snapping lesson]"

"[about the death & reanimation of Dean Halsey] This is a dream. Fiction."

"[about Dean Halsey] He's not insane. He's dead."

"[whispered to Megan, in the film's final line] I love you."

"[about the two pencils West has just deliberately snapped] Mister West. I suggest you get yourself a pen."

"[about West's basement lab] Hmm. Interesting little la-bor-ah-tory you have here."

"Mace: [about the morgue] Don't know why they keep locked doors around here. Nobody wants in, and ain't nobody gettin' out."

"H.P. Lovecraft's classic tale of horror"

"Death Is Just The Beginning..."

"Herbert West has a good head on his shoulders... and another one on his desk."

"...It will scare you to pieces."

"When we were doing the research on it, we were spending a lot of time talking to pathologists in various morgues, and they had the blackest sense of humour I’ve ever encountered! I think you have to if you’re going to do a job like that. I think that, somehow, managed to make its way into the movie."

"Re-Animator was released unrated, which is very seldom done, but it allowed us to do anything we wanted to. With From Beyond, they insisted that it be rated R, which meant that it was more restricted in what we’d be allowed to do."
