Herbert West's reanimated corpses

LibriNon mortoScienza finita maleDal 1900 al 1967

A six-part serial in which a medical researcher keeps injecting corpses with a reagent that brings them back violent and degraded. It is regarded as one of the earliest depictions of zombies as scientifically reanimated bodies rather than products of sorcery. Critics rate it among Lovecraft's weakest work, but its film adaptation gave it a long afterlife.1
