Ignite Films did the excellent remaster of Re-Animator and they’re not stopping there. They’re also working on a restoration of Bride of Re-Animator for 2026. Check out the new poster, below.

The new restoration should release in early 2026. Unveiled at the Fantastic Pavilion at the Marché du Film in Cannes, Bride of Re-Animator will receive a deluxe home video release mirroring the wildly popular Re-Animator 40th Anniversary Edition — packed with exclusive new bonus features, limited collector’s packaging, and fan-favorite surprises.

Synopsis:

Eight months after the Miskatonic Massacre, Doctors Herbert West (Jeffrey Combs) and Dan Cain (Bruce Abbott) are back – working as volunteer medics in a Peruvian civil war. But death is only the beginning: once home, West resumes his experiments, this time with a twisted new goal – to create life from spare parts and bring Dan’s late fiancée back as the ultimate re-animated creation.

A splatter-soaked chaotic cult sequel drenched in dark humor and grand guignol horror, Bride of Re-Animator pushes the boundaries of body horror with jaw-dropping practical effects from Screaming Mad George and KNB EFX Group, the renowned special makeup effects studio behind Evil Dead II, From Dusk Till Dawn, and The Walking Dead.

Bride of Re-Animator stars Jeffrey Combs, Bruce Abbott, Claude Earl Jones,

Fabiana Udenio, David Gale, and Kathleen Kinmont.

This upcoming 4K UHD release of Bride of Re-Animator is the third foray into the restoration and preservation of sci-fi horror classic films for Ignite Films and Eagle Rock Pictures. Their 40th Anniversary 4K UHD release of Re-Animator was released just this month to stellar reviews from critics and fans alike. Their 70th Anniversary 4K UHD restoration and release of Invaders From Mars was met with universal acclaim from fans and critics worldwide, and was honored with many awards, including the 2024 SATURN Award® for Best Classic Film Home Media Release. The release also won the Best Rediscovery of a Forgotten Film from the Il Cinema Ritrovato DVD Awards ®2023 and the Hollywood Professional Association’s Inaugural Jury Award® for Outstanding Achievement in Restoration.

Their release of Re-Animator on 4K UHD is one of the best 4K releases of the year. You can grab it from their website: Ignite-Films.com.
