A few days ago, Bloody Disgusting dropped a tasty bit of news about an upcoming TV series based on Lovecraft's Herbert West—Reanimator. Apparently, Transition Entertainment is putting together a pilot for a sci-fi series that depicts "a teenage Dr. Frankenstein" as he dabbles with raising the dead.
B-D has now dropped a few more hints, thanks to a courtesy call from writer William Butler:
"This project in no way is connected to/or like the original classic movie [RE-ANIMATOR], which we respect and honor with all of our being, but rather a growing narrative inspired by all of HP Lovecraft's early works as well as new science fiction elements." (emphasis added)
Presumably, the series will draw from all areas of the Mythos, rather than just Reanimator, and perhaps from other sci-fi realms. It could be a stroke of genius, or it could be an unimaginably terrifying abomination.
