story identification - What 80s movie features a mad scientist building an inter-dimensional portal in his attic?
From what I can remember of the movie, it features an increasingly isolated loner building or inheriting a machine in his Attic that starts bringing back monsters from outside reality when he turns it on. I think it was from the early 80s and it had a Lovecraftian vibe to it. The movie is like 'The Fly' in that it features a story that slowly descends into dark horror.
Does anyone have any clue what I'm talking about?
I'll try to add more details if I can remember anymore.
Answer
It was From Beyond, the 1986 film based on HP Lovecraft's story of the same name.
They released an unrated director's cut for this film as well.
