I really like the Re-animator movies. They're stupid but fun and they have a wonderful Bruce Campbell-wink-to-the audience humor about them. The direct-to-DVD 3rd film, "Beyond Re-animator was every bit as fun as its predecessors. I'll definitely be watching this upcoming film in a future Horrorthon. By the way, people, Horrorthon 2006 is only 5 months away!
From Horrorview, "Well how's this for a great chunk of horror news? One of my favorite actors has signed on to star in one of my favorite horror franchises!! That's right, William H. Macy will be starring in the next Re-Animator film, HOUSE OF RE-ANIMATOR!! Macy will be playing a U.S. President who drops dead, and his cabinet will summon the illustrious Dr. Herbert West to revive him!! This one sounds like it will be played primarily for laughs, but that's fine by me, especially knowing that Stuart Gordon will be directing this entry, with Brian Yuzna returning to the role of producer!"

William H. Macy in a Re-Animator movie! That totally rocks!
Man, I never saw that coming.
I just love that they're calling it "House of Re-Animator"! I like the whole "House" thing, like House of Frankenstein, House of Dracula, etc.
House of 1,000 Corpses, House, House II: The Second Story, uh...House Party...House Parties 2 thru 4...
You're right though, seeing "House of" (insert well-known name) is a neat way to go. It implies some weird horror aristocracy.
I'm trying to fit it to other franchises, but it isn't working. House of Freddy, House of Kreuger, House of Elm Street...hmmm. Maybe you need a one-word name. House of Jason? No, that doesn't really do it.
House of Slither might work, if Slither was more successful. House of the Living Dead. House of The Ring. House of Samara.
I guess it just works sometimes, but when it works, it's great.
House of Flying Daggers! Forgot that one.
Hmmmmm, House of Snoopy, House of Hannibal, House of Hell...
