to:

[[redirect:Film/ReAnimator]]The second sequel to ''Film/ReAnimator'' from the year 2003, which was directed by Creator/BrianYuzna.

Herbert West (Creator/JeffreyCombs) has been in prison for thirteen years after one of his test subjects killed a teenaged girl and Dan Cain testified against him. The prison has a new doctor, Howard Phillips, who has West help him in the infirmary. Howard is revealed to be the younger brother of the girl who was killed by West's test subject. He helps West continue his experiments in the hope that what happened to his sister will never happen to anyone else again. West experiments with nanoplasmic energy, which can be taken from a living person and put into a reanimated person, restoring rational behavior. It works. Sort of.

!!''Beyond'' has examples of:

* BookDumb: Sgt. Moncho is confused by West' use of the word "dubious", and later uses it without knowing the proper context for it.
* BreastAttack: The reanimated Moses sinks his teeth on the prison nurse's right breast.
* CharacterAgedWithTheActor: West has been in prison since the release of the previous film.
* ChurchgoingVillain: Moses, a religious prisoner who nonetheless succumbs to his cannibalistic urges from time to time. He'll tear out a chunk of your flesh only to spit it out and beg God for forgiveness.
* CradlingYourKill: After killing his reanimated LoveInterest Laura, Howard is found cradling her remains by the authorities.
* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: After dying and being reanimated, a prison guard keeps saying "Dubious" after a confrontation with West in which he hears the word but doesn't understand it. When West impersonates Dr. Phillips to escape the prison, he passes the guard who says to no one in particular "Dubious? Dubious."
* EarAche: When the warden confronts Laura for trying to talk to Moses (who has been reanimated by West), Moses attacks him and bites his ear off.
* {{Expy}}: Several of the characters. Dr. Phillips, West's new assistant, is Dan Cain, an idealistic young doctor who hopes West's work can be used to save lives. Laura, Dr. Phillips' love interest who [[spoiler: gets killed and reanimated]] is Meg Halsey. The Warden, a lustful man obsessed with Laura who wants to steal West's reagent, is an expy for Dr. Hill.
* EyeScream: [[JackUpWithPhlebotinum Dosing on the Re-Agent formula]] causes Speedball's (who was still living when he took it) eyes and guts explode out of his body.
* EyeSpy: For reasons the movie doesn't explain, West takes one of the eyeballs that exploded out of Speedball's body, and keeps it around until at the end when he discards the eyeball outside the front lawn of the chaos-infested prison, while it struggles to move.
* DulcineaEffect: Dr. Phillips stops to help Laura, who has a twisted ankle, ''before'' helping a guard who had a chunk of his arm ripped out by one of West's reanimated zombies.
* FantasticDrug: One living inmate becomes addicted to West's reagent formula, which lead to his guts exploding out of his body.

* LaughingMad: The events of the film drive [[spoiler:Dr. Phillips]] to this point.

%%* MsFanservice: Laura, Nurse Vanessa.
* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:Howard cuts reanimated Laura's head off, as she's trying to kill him]].

* PreAsskickingOneLiner: West to the Warden. "This experiment is over."
* PreMortemOneLiner: Before West fries the Warden in an electric chair.
