Dir. Sean Branney
English
Rating: [M]
Genres: Cult / Invaders
Topics: Period 1930s.
Feat. Matt Foyer, Barry Lynch, Autumn Wendel
Aroview: A fittingly old-fashioned homage to the 30s Universal horror by way of H.P. Lovecraft's story of an extraterrestrial folklore.
This simulation of vintage Hollywood is also faithful to Lovecraft's novel, although somewhat short on the tension and dread characteristic of the master's best (and most unfilmable) works. Includes the silent short 'Call of Cthulhu' (47m.), an earlier adaptation of a Lovecraft tale by the same filmmakers, themselves the founders of the Lovecraft Historical Society.

4 stars (Very Good) Great Lovecraft adaptation from people who know and love the source material. Quite low budget, but what they had is all on the screen. Highly recommended. ~Anon
4 stars (Very Good) Made with love. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Made with craft. ~The Oxblow Incident
2 stars (Good Try) The switch from their superior, silent Call of Cthulhu to this sound movie reveals the limitations of the amateur actors involved. The addition to the climax was a bad idea. Good effort though. ~Pearce
