I wonder, how will they portray the long descriptions of the creatures that Lovecraft describes as recorded in pictograms? They can't make a movie that has thirty minutes of archaeological analysis of some doodles on a wall...

...Or CAN they?!

a good lovecraft story movie would be totally psychedelic .. well not psychedelic, but .. weird. like, blurry and hitchcock-like and like the aeon flux movie or "immortals" and sin city and even (though i suspect loads of people dislike this movie) "what dreams may come" .. it needs to look very surreal. like, impressionist, kind of. like you're viewing the way the character is viewing the world, not as an outside spectator.

I think Dagon and Dreams in the Witch House both did a respectable job of capturing the inevitableness of the protagonists plight and at the same time the heavy atmosphere that felt like reading Lovecraft.

Spike Jones would be a cool director for this.

Tarantino.

CTHULU MOTHERFUCKER, CAN YOU PRONOUNCE IT?

Fuck that.

You'd just get Cthulu, Nyarlotep, and Azathoth sitting around a table, talking about the sociopolitical ramifications of Three's Company, and whether Jack Tripper was actually gay or not.


























...Hold on a second, that would be awesome.

Will Guillermo Del Torro find a way to make "TEKELI-LI" sound scary, and not just silly (the way it sounds in my head).

Cthulhu: A Shoggoth's a Shoggoth, but they usually just scream from the undescribable horror instead.

That was the most gorgeous thing I have seen online in weeks....


I think I just orgasmed.  :fnord:
One by one, we break the sheep from their Iron Bar Prisons and expand their imaginations, make them think for themselves. In turn, they break more from their prisons. Eventually, critical mass is reached. Our key word: Resolve. Evangelize with compassion and determination. And realize that there will be few in the beginning. We are hand picking our successors. They are the future of Discordianism. Let us guide our future with intelligence.
