| Re: Lovecraftian Cinema
The best Lovecraftian movie is Ghostbusters.
Plot:
Worshippers from an ancient cult construct a gate to another dimension. There they worship to gather spiritual energy in order to summon an ancient god and draw it into our dimension which they hope will then bring about the end of the world.
Ghosts, cultists, ancient god-creatures, end-of-the-world. It's Lovecraft straight up and down.
Incidentally, I bought the silent Call of Cthulhu flick...and honestly I couldn't wait for it to end. Maybe it's the fact that it was silent, or the budget, I'm not sure. But I really hated it. |
