Stuart Gordon(1947-2020)

While searching around in film reels, he had found the uncut reels of From Beyond - Aliens des Grauens (1986) and gave MGM permission to release the uncut version to DVD.

The Lovecraft purists are always very upset with me because I'm always throwing all of this nudity into these movies, and there is no nudity in Lovecraft. But my argument is that there is a tremendous sexuality about Lovecraft, and a fear of sex, taking the reproductive act and turning it into something monstrous. Although he doesn't get explicit with it, he'll refer to it constantly in his stories. And in a movie, you have to use images to show things.
