Um this is actually a fairly good movie. The fact that the main character is gay unfortunately drags every immature idiots attention away from the content of the movie. Besides, can anyone name a better lovecraft movie so far?

H.P.Lovecraft himself adopted the stance of atheism early in his life. In 1932 he wrote in a letter to Robert E. Howard: "All I say is that I think it is damned unlikely that anything like a central cosmic will, a spirit world, or an eternal survival of personality exist [sic]. They are the most preposterous and unjustified of all the guesses which can be made about the universe, and I am not enough of a hair-splitter to pretend that I don't regard them as arrant and negligible moonshine.(wiki)
Great. Fags can taint even the complete ruination of mankind. Now I suppose Cthulhu will be voiced by Morgan Freemman, and played by by Edward James Olmos with no makeup.
This trailer sucks. The movie is actually pretty good and creepy, but it has nothing to do with Cthulhu. It's from another Lovecraft's novel: "The Shadow Over Innsmouth".
. . . is there some secret pact out there in the movie making world that says that 99.9% of all movies that have anything to do with H. P. Lovecraft is to be wrong, horrible and/or make fans wish they could stone the creators?
This is a real movie, not a fan-made trailer. Haven't seen it, but the director and writer said that the protagonist is gay, and the movie is an allegory about the "horror of returning home". No Cthulhu anywhere that I'm aware of; apparently the Great Old Ones are actually homophobes....
Cthulhu? That just looked like some guy freaking out on tori spelling. That's anybody's reaction to tori spelling. not worth making a movie about. If i could convay a fart noise via text, i would do it right now.

FROM THE MAKERS OF "I SAW MOMMY KISSING C'THULU", COMES THIS SUMMER'S COMEDY BLOCKBUSTER WHICH WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH, CRY AND CHEER AS ONE MAN TRAVELS BACK HOME TO INNSMOUTH TO INTRODUCE HIS LOVER TO HIS FAMILY!
ITS "MOM, IM DATING A SHOGGOTH!" - ONLY ON ABC FAMILY!
warning - watching may cause insanity. c'thulu fhtagn!
What @RafaelKmargo said. I saw this movie in LA (and kinda sorta got shut down during the Q/A with the director after. Ha!) It looked great - the design and costumes were outstanding, some of the shots were phenomenal, some of the acting was good. But the story was crap, all over the place, and not even remotely close to the complexity that is HPL. Very disappointing. Nobody can make a good HPL movie. Well, maybe Dagon comes close.
Advice to film-producers: the Cthulhu-mythos and all thereby affiliated themes and characters are way too complex, genuinely cult and too goddamn intricate to make a movie out of so please don't bother us anymore with your cheap-no-thrills and downright boring travesty of a true classic story...!
Wow this looks like everything Lovecraft fans don't look for in a movie about Lovecraft books. Nice job somehow managing to miss EVERYTHING that makes the Mythos interesting.
@ChildrenofAmory Well, since I've actually seen it, I can say with all confidence that you're wrong. It captures exactly the sort of mood and themes Lovecraft used in his writings, set in a modern context. Unless by "EVERYTHING that makes the Mythos interesting", you mean obsessive adherence to canon. In which case, sorry fanboy, this is for grownups.
Like one of his followers, being a catholic, messed with his universe by dividing everything he saw on good and bad, not understanding that it must be looked on with detachment from the prism of good and evil, trying to abstract from the moral, and understand that some things just is there, not being good, nor evil. The same way those hollywood fucks are going to make a shitty movie which no man, who enjoy H.P.'s works will consider worth attaching to the universe, because they just dont get it.
@Stremaa lovecraft wasn't a complete asexual, he even was married and his wife described him as a quite good lover. And if you are refering to the ''new'' movie with tom cruise, they aren't doing it ( for now). I hope it stays that way.. it would break my heart if a shitty remake of lovecrafts great stories would make it in our cinemas.. Greetings
and you can actually see it when he describes an atmosphere, people's faces, architecture and stuff. It's not even horrors, more like mysticism. Most stories end with only a hint or two, not revealing the end completely, which leaves some room for your imagination....
Well Cthulhu shouldn't be in the movie, but what the fuck with this screaming woman again, AND a sex scene? Lovecraft was an asexual (I hope I spelled it right), and, so far I've read all his stories, and his "followers" ones, and done with co-authors, there is not a single sex scene. Every lovecraft story moved you to, most likely, either england or, most of the times "new england", of a XVIII-XIX centuries...
I ain't even gonna bother to see this film...Cause I bet that it will be an utter pain to watch it ...At least for those who actually have read the story by Lovecraft.
this movie was actually really nice. the lovcraftian undertones actually shined through! didn't think it would be good at all. but it was, and it doesn't show any monsters except some fishmen, but those are living in the sewers in this movie... which is actually quite strange since they are usually afraid of the shoggoths.
I hate the people that made this video to fuck with people, and I hate the people stupid enough to think this is real, and I hate the people who call themselves "REAL FANS".
@Necrokeryx It is real, I've seen part of it. It's just really shitty and has basically nothing to do with H.P. Lovecraft except for a few minor similarities to Shadow over Insmouth.
This movie is a piece of shit. They were more interested in making a gay interest movie than anything based on Lovecraft. If they wanted to make a gay interest movie, that's fine, but don't waste the title Cthulhu, and our time!
am i the only one who actually liked this movie? give it a try. it's one of those which seem pretty bad at first. it had an unique feeling, but no way anything lovecraftian.

We'd love to hear from all Lovecraft fans and will be holding contests, info sessions and more!
@sjlume Sorry but if you consider this a "mighty fine trailer" then I'm afraid I'm a little leary about your At The Mountains Of Madness film. I hope I'm wrong.
People read Lovecraft for a good scare, supernatural beasties and otherworldy monsters beyond imagining, not subtle social commentary on the plight of certain minorities in small towns. I am so sick of people hijacking popular source material to vomit out their personal philosophies(The Last Airbender being an anti-war message) instead of bringing to life a wonderful story in a grand scale.
Many fundamentalists would call the film's protagonist an abomination, but in truth, it was the whole film. I'm gay and was so excited to see an openly gay protagonist in a film, but being a fan of Lovecraft transcends amoral preference. The incoherent writing, poor acting, convoluted story and abuse of the Mythos left me really wanting to find out who I could blame, call them up and yell at them a lot.
its funny how fucking kids that learned about cthulhu from south park come to this trailer and go "OMFG NO LIEZ DER IS NO CTHULHU IN FILM! FAKE?@#@OJ#I!"
you fucking faggots really need to look these things up before coming here.Cthulhu was said to communicate with people TELEPATHICALLY! Lovecraft neve explained what cthulhu actually looks like, only that he looked like an octopus/dragon/human.
@EphedPrankZ Although Cthulhu communicates with people telepathically, the end of the story is about the Norweigian seaman's encounter with the creature; it even explains the death of some of his friends to the creature. Although it is past tense and told in a flashback sequence, the story does technically contain a part of his emergence. Another thing, Lovecraft did explain what he looked like. The octupus/dragon/human was the FIRST description, and was of the statuette. Towards the end,
@EphedPrankZ more descriptions are told in heavier detailed, such as his "claws", "tentacles", "feelers", "red eyes", "miles high" body, and etc....it even explains how he looks sitting upon his throne in R'lyeh. I do agree with you on that kids are sheep when it comes to gaining literature knowledge, but the other parts of your argument aren't entirely correct....
@Kira90Bliss I own the Mythos and actually reread Call of Cthulhu last night for the 2nd time. If you don't believe me, I can past some quotes, if you'd like.
@itsmylife93 I wouldn't call the effects in 'The Call Of Cthulhu' horrible effects, certainly they aren't the latest in CGI bluescreening, but for a small budget Indy film like TCOC they're pretty damn memorable for stop motion animation, the best way to describe the effects would be "What if Merian C. Cooper and Willis O. Brien had in the 1920s decided to create a film based on a Lovecraft story instead of creating King Kong in 1933?"
@spacecowboy5000 Hey! I'll have you know that Lovecraft was highly renown for the frequent appearance of raunchy love scenes and polar bears in his work!
@spacecowboy5000 judging from all ive seen about this the only thing i can think of that this would slightly resemble is a shadow over innsmouth. but thats hardly even a resemblance there
@dudster9867 I picked up a microscopic amount of "Shadow Over Innmouth" too - but not enough to fill a condom. It's as if someone made this movie, figured there was some weird sea stuff, and thought they'd stick the name "Cthulhu" onto it. Seriously, they didn't even try.
@spacecowboy5000 true. this film is a disgrace to love craft and to the cthulu mythos. the only lovecraft based movie i found to be entertaining is from beyond
@punkjames2 21th century, I think. Everything is a lot of flash and effects. A good Lovecraft movie needs great writers and actors. We should only see the creatures briefly until the end. I really don't want to sound sexist but when was there a woman in a Lovecraft story - let alone a sex scene? Hollywood would try to make Chtulhu in 3D. Everyone working on that one would die mysteriously, horribly. Muahahaha!
God....I'm tired of the noobs asking who Lovecraft and Cthulhu is, he and it are probably one the most underated influences of horror, but I like to think modestly he's the best.
what does this have to do with Cthulhu?

Many fundamentalists would call the film's protagonist an abomination, but in truth, it was the whole film. I'm gay and was so excited to see an openly gay protagonist in a film, but being a fan of Lovecraft transcends amoral preference. The incoherent writing, poor acting, convoluted story and abuse of the Mythos left me really wanting to find out who I could blame, call them up and yell at them a lot.

its funny how fucking kids that learned about cthulhu from south park come to this trailer and go "OMFG NO LIEZ DER IS NO CTHULHU IN FILM! FAKE?@#@OJ#I!"
you fucking faggots really need to look these things up before coming here.Cthulhu was said to communicate with people TELEPATHICALLY! Lovecraft neve explained what cthulhu actually looks like, only that he looked like an octopus/dragon/human.

@EphedPrankZ Although Cthulhu communicates with people telepathically, the end of the story is about the Norweigian seaman's encounter with the creature; it even explains the death of some of his friends to the creature. Although it is past tense and told in a flashback sequence, the story does technically contain a part of his emergence. Another thing, Lovecraft did explain what he looked like. The octupus/dragon/human was the FIRST description, and was of the statuette. Towards the end,

@EphedPrankZ more descriptions are told in heavier detailed, such as his "claws", "tentacles", "feelers", "red eyes", "miles high" body, and etc....it even explains how he looks sitting upon his throne in R'lyeh. I do agree with you on that kids are sheep when it comes to gaining literature knowledge, but the other parts of your argument aren't entirely correct....

@Kira90Bliss I own the Mythos and actually reread Call of Cthulhu last night for the 2nd time. If you don't believe me, I can past some quotes, if you'd like.

the 7th art just can´t have its cthulhu version. lovecraft didn´t write screenplays, they way he described things was just the opposite.

@itsmylife93 I wouldn't call the effects in 'The Call Of Cthulhu' horrible effects, certainly they aren't the latest in CGI bluescreening, but for a small budget Indy film like TCOC they're pretty damn memorable for stop motion animation, the best way to describe the effects would be "What if Merian C. Cooper and Willis O. Brien had in the 1920s decided to create a film based on a Lovecraft story instead of creating King Kong in 1933?"

@spacecowboy5000 Hey! I'll have you know that Lovecraft was highly renown for the frequent appearance of raunchy love scenes and polar bears in his work!

dudster9867 7 months ago
@dudster9867 I picked up a microscopic amount of "Shadow Over Innmouth" too - but not enough to fill a condom. It's as if someone made this movie, figured there was some weird sea stuff, and thought they'd stick the name "Cthulhu" onto it. Seriously, they didn't even try.
spacecowboy5000 7 months ago
@spacecowboy5000 true. this film is a disgrace to love craft and to the cthulu mythos. the only lovecraft based movie i found to be entertaining is from beyond
dudster9867 7 months ago
@dudster9867 That wasn't bad. But honestly, I don't think Hollywood can handle the vision or the inner horror Lovecraft had. It's too big for them.

dudster9867 7 months ago
@spacecowboy5000 Well the Cthulhu mythos has streched far beyond Lovecraft's work, so no, it's probably not based on his work.

punkjames2 7 months ago
@punkjames2 21th century, I think. Everything is a lot of flash and effects. A good Lovecraft movie needs great writers and actors. We should only see the creatures briefly until the end. I really don't want to sound sexist but when was there a woman in a Lovecraft story - let alone a sex scene? Hollywood would try to make Chtulhu in 3D. Everyone working on that one would die mysteriously, horribly. Muahahaha!
