From Beyond (1986) The Playground Movie Reviews

Director: Stuart Gordon

Cast: Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree

Mad Scientist, Dr. Pretorius and his assistant, Dr. Tillinghast (Combs) have invented a machine called the Resonator. The machine creates vibrations that stimulate the pineal gland. The gland grows to abnormal size and gives you a sixth sense that allows sight into another dimension (as well as making you a horny bastard) and the creatures and monsters that inhabit it. But they can also see you and they aren’t very nice.

Pretorious gets killed by one of the creatures but isn’t exactly dead as his head (and brain) are eaten by the thing and therefore his essence lives inside the horrible inter-dimensional monster. Tillinghast is arrested for the murder and confined to a mental hospital where psychologist Dr. McMichaels (Crampton) takes him into her custody to evaluate him after she hears his outrageous account of the murder. With the help of Bubba (Foree), a police officer assigned to the case, she takes him back to the scene of the crime to reenact it.
