@MyLovelyHomicide yes, you're right. I just notice things like that, but of course it's not the most important. and I meant: it was one of the disadvantages. some scenes were the second. but instead of it, this is one of the best adaptations of this story.

@TheDetroitAndy as a lovecraft fan i generally get more dissapointed when the acting or atmosphere dont suit lovecraft than little changes like the way a character looks. its impossible for a director to create exactly what one imagines from one of his stories cause each person will imagine it in a different way

@MyLovelyHomicide oh yes. and MANY adjectives...xd
um, generally this film is not very bad, but it's not very good too. there's a problem with the actors-they aren't very...suitable. I mean Carter should bee a bit too thin (as I remember from Lovecraft's description), and Warren ought to be WHITE. I am not a racist, but Lovecraft was-we can't deny it. that's all.

and thats literal

i like the "warren is dead" voice. it sounds like the kind of voice for which lovecraft would need a paragraph for its description XDDD

I know it sounds racist, unfortunately HPL was (his xenophobia is legendary), but hed be turning in his grave that black men where doing his work. You do a good job though.

why is warren being so forcefull in the beging he doesent even want randolph to come with him at first
This is the best version of the short story that I have seen. I know some would like a hollywood version but let's be realistic. If the executives started on this kind of project they would cast Carter as a female, Warren as a talking dog, and the story would be about thier journey to find a father figure. Private film companies are the only ones who have been the msot faithful to Lovecraft's vision.

The guy playing Carter sounds like this is his first time acting. The delivery just seemed off big time. That and like oconnorcd said, there's a CSI feeling to it, partially due to the camera work on top of the whole "WOAH LOOK AT THIS" effect every couple of minutes.
