I’like you all here, Im a big HPL fan. I’ve read and reread everything he put out excluding the letters, and I’m always interested to read other authors works that reference directly or indirectly Lovecrafts mythos. A few personal Favorites are ’ A Colder War’ by Charles Stross and ‘N’ by Stephen King. I just can’t get enough of esoteric cults, elder gods and Things Man Was Not Meant to Know.

What are your personal Favorites from outside Lovecrafts main body of work?

    Totally agree! I did the Leo “pointing at screen with beer” meme when I realised the connection, because I watched the films about two or three years apart.

    Have you seen their latest outing, Something in the Dirt? It’s a solid film as well, very usual and hooked me right away.

      I absolutely have. I discovered the endless about a month ago and have binged just about everything by they’ve made/worked on in the time since. I am really excited to see where they go next - I haven’t been this fanatical about an indie filmmaker since I saw Pi and fell in love with Aronofsky sometime around 1999.

      I am not a marvel fan, but I hear great things about their work on Moon Knight and Loki, so I am hopeful they’ll get a proper-budget film in the near future. What they’ve managed to create on essentially pocket change is leagues above anyone in their class, it’s a really extraordinary talent that is rare for filmmakers of their pedigree.
