Dr. Norbert Crest
is a brilliant scientist undertaking controversial research to find a cure
for mortality by experimenting on the recently deceased. Working
out of his cellar, his life is consumed by his work.
All at once, his
experiments spiral out of control, brought on by a major breakthrough in
his research, the appearance of a beautiful assistant and the persistence
of some local Mormons.
Soon, the question
becomes not whether Norbert survives the day, but which part of him?
Inspired by the short story Herbert West: Re-Animator, by H.P. Lovecraft.
