Stuart Gordon

Highest Rated: 94% Re-Animator (1985)

Lowest Rated: 0% The Dentist (1996)

Birthday: Aug 11, 1947

Birthplace: Chicago, Illinois, USA

Best known to genre buffs as the adroit filmmaker behind the giddily gory H.P. Lovecraft adaptations, "Re-Animator" (1985) and "From Beyond" (1986), Gordon also boasts a significant theatrical background and other film credits ranging from direct-to-video genre fodder to bona fide Hollywood blockbusters. Gordon was the co-founder and longtime artistic director (1969-85) of Chicago's Organic Theater Company, where he directed 35 plays, including the world premiere of David Mamet's "Sexual Perversity in Chicago" and the long-running "Bleacher Bums."
