“From The Dead” (* out of four) was a deadly dull revenge potboiler about a woman (Sarah Hollis) who accidentally murders her husband (Will Leon) during a domestic dispute. Her husband’s brother introduces her to an Aztec ritual spell that brings him back from the dead but he seeks bloodthirsty vengeance. Unfortunately, nothing that he does can bring this movie back “from the dead.” Leaden and sleazy affair goes nowhere for nearly an hour-and-a-half. It’s movies like these that make you realize why “Ghost” was such a masterpiece back in 1990.
