Trivia
Only film in the series not to feature Bruce Abbott as Herbert West's assistant Dan Cain. See more »Goofs
When Emily searches the house for the strange noise right before being surprised by her brother, she crosses the living room. A cameraman is visible in the large wall mirror for the entire tracking shot. See more »Crazy Credits
The end credits are accompanied by a fight between a rat and the warden's severed penis. See more »Alternate Versions
US DVD release of the film is slightly cut (about thirty seconds total) compared to some R2 releases.- When Speedball ODs on the re-agent, he sits up and his eyeball pops out.
- When he explodes, we see him open his shirt and his stomach spew out. (On the DVD, the shot lingers on West up until Speedball's guts are already halfway through the air.)
- When the Doctor Phillips is battling with Laura, a few of the shots where he starts hacking at her neck are trimmed.

I loved the first Re-Animator movie. "Bride of Re-Animator" was OK. This one is over-the-top, completely twisted, and just plain clean, gory, bloody, guts spattering about, eyeballs crawling around, penis-attacks-rat fun.
This isn't a movie that takes itself seriously, and you shouldn't, either.
Jeffrey Combes is wonderful, as always, as Dr. Herbert West. Dr. West has figured out (or so he thinks) what was missing in his previous "experiments." Needless to say, it doesn't work as planned (hey, it's "just a theory"), and much mayhem ensues. Much. Much more than in the first two movies. Think "Attica" meets "Night of the Living Dead" meets "Freaky Friday." Yes, it's that far off the deep end.
I would recommend this film highly to anyone who enjoys a humorous splatter flick. If you're not a deranged gorehound, you probably won't like this one. Speaking as a longtime deranged gorehound, however, I can safely say that this is one of the finest films ever made in its genre, and certainly worthy of several Academy Awards.
I did mention that I was deranged, right?
Yeah, I did. And if you are, too, see this movie. And don't forget to watch the absolutely classic "Move Your Dead Bones" video that also comes on the DVD. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll like it better than "Cats."
Kudos to Brian Yuzna!
