A Gothic horror film in which gentlemen scientist-investigators set out to capture the spirit of death with laboratory equipment? It's somewhat reminiscent of "[[Herbert West: Re-Animator (fiction)]]" or "[[From Beyond (fiction)]]"....<br />

===Keeper Notes===<br />
<!-- Optional. Notes to Keepers on using this for film for scenario ideas. Heresies and Controversies: this is also a good place to include non-canon and controversial aspects of the film's mythos. Suggested Alternative Theories include: Derleth's elemental scheme; pseudo-science interpretation; "fanon" interpretations; unofficial humorous or eccentric versions; identification with "Real Life" mythological, religious, folklore, natural, and historical phenomena; rumor and speculation contribute some flexibility and ambiguity to the mythos. * Alternative_theory.
