Re-Animator: The Musical, a live stage version of Stuart Gordon's 1985 cult classic film, returned to Hollywood this October, and like the green serum-injected corpses from Gordon's movie, the musical is on the move, with a run in Las Vegas announced. Vegas residents who enjoyed the blood-splattered grooviness of Evil Dead The Musical can see the dead dance once again in this horror-comedy production.

Re-Animator: The Musical will play in the Troesh Studio Theater at The Smith Center in Las Vegas from January 6th – 18th. Tickets are $44 apiece and can be purchased at:

"RE-ANIMATOR THE MUSICAL tells the bizarre story of Herbert West, a young medical student who has discovered a glowing green serum that can bring the dead back to life…with catastrophic results.

Based on the cult classic H.P. LOVECRAFT’S RE-ANIMATOR, this award-winning horror comedy is helmed by Stuart Gordon (who also directed the film) and features a Splash Zone for those who enjoy a little splatter! Variety writes “Not since LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS has a screamfest tuner so deftly balanced seriousness and camp.”
