very good addition to full moons lovecraft inspired storyline

Guy makes a resonator that interacts with entities on another plane that have strong sexual forces/energies that are very hostile, seductive and powerful. It's a retelling of an old story with a different setting but its not a remake of From Beyond, its more like a prequel. I hope they continue on down this path. More please.

Its on par with most low buget Lovecraft adaptations.

If you are a Lovecraft fan, you will like it for what is is, and not be shocked at what it is... But, why in the hell is Miskatonic University in California?!

A mixed bag of sorts. I have a Love/Hate thing going on for this.

The positive. They resurrected a great film by Gordon. Got the basics correct. The negative. Horrid effects in places. I mean just awful. The practical effects are decent. Overuse of cgi and the effects aren't very good. Truly some poor cgi work. Costumes are passable at least. Story is kind of meh. Better than nothing I guess. I have a feeling this show will get very opposing opinions.

Thoroughly entertaining!

I actually paid into the Full Moon app so I could watch this show and I'm glad I did. I'm a fan of horror and the movie From Beyond. This show has done a great job at recreating that universe that was initiated by HP Lovecraft's writings and then put to the screen by Stuart Gordon and his crew with From Beyond. The Resonator is a well made and acted television show. It's very interesting, exciting, and thoroughly entertaining. Not sure how many episodes there will be but I'm excited to see what unfolds.

Not so bad

The really bad reviews must be written by people completely unfamiliar with Full Moon. If you know Full Moon & have appropriate expectations, this is certainly one of their more enjoyable features in recent years IMO. Its not a bunch of silly nonsense played as a big joke like the bulk of Full Moon's current catalogue. The story is told straight, with effects that stay in line with the original film and also includes some direct tie ins. The main problem with this movie is the overly attractive fashion model style cast. The movie could gain a few more levels of credibility & seriousness if it would have just cast real looking people, instead of eye candy. I'm sure plenty of the Full Moon fanbase won't take any issue with the hot girls in schoolgirl uniforms though.

Trivia
At 51:55 Crawford states, "That will be quite enough of that." Which is the same thing Jeffrey Combs says as Crawford Tillinghast in From Beyond : Aux portes de l'au-delà (1986).
