Herbert West's reanimated corpses

IincwadiIvuswe ekufeniIsayensi engahambanga kakuhle1900 ukuya ku-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
