The good doctor Herbert West has defied death before and now he's looking to make a comeback. Not in a sequel, however, but in a remake. (C'mon, don't act surprised.)
ShockTillYouDrop.com has learned producer Ray Haboush is developing a remake of Stuart Gordon's Re-Animator. Haboush operates Automatic Media and is the owner of Halcyon International Pictures. He'll be shepherding the project with Brian Yuzna, producer of the original '85 and director of Bride of Re-Animator and Beyond Re-Animator.
There have been talks in the past of a House of Re-Animator and a television series. None of which have come to fruition.
Haboush and Yuzna are looking to do the remake in 3-D. And since it's so early in the game, there's no word as to whether Combs would return to reprise his role, or if they'll find someone new to slip into Herbert West's lab coat.

super..The news came via a career bio on executive producer Ray Haboush. Most mini-bios for press notes need to be approved by the talent before they go to print; so keeping that in mind, we presumed the Re-Animator redo news was solid enough for an announcement. But it appears someone jumped the gun.
Last night, I caught up to original Re-Animator helmer Stuart Gordon who admitted to seeing the news break and being confused, especially after getting off the phone with producer Brian Yuzna. "I contacted Brian and he didn't know anything about it. I said, 'What's going with the remake?' And he asked, what remake?"
So, is a Re-Animator remake in 3-D wishful thinking on Haboush's part? A way to draw some attention? It generated from somewhere in his camp. We'll see what we can dig up. For now, rest easy. It doesn't look like this remake is going to happen any time soon.
