Sir Wolf:
ya they had THEE DIRECTOR who could do it justice and they wanted teenagers to see the film. what the heck man hehehe

Sir William:
I find that with subject matter such as what Lovecraft and Stephen King put out, it really depends on who's telling the story.  King is so intricate that most of what I've seen is really lost in translation, or poorly realized.

With technology as it is today, I think a lot of what we've previously read can finally be realized...in fact, I'm quite certain that Samayel's final form in Hellboy can be traced directly to representations of Cthulhu himself...either way, I can't say for sure that I'd watch a Lovecraft movie.  His short stories were disturbing enough!

Sir Wolf:
totally agree with you there! i was like oo look!!!!!!!!!! hehehe my wife was like wha?

Sir William:
Yea, mine too...she wouldn't touch Lovecraft for anything.  She loves gore, but not the unknown...that truly frightens her.

Sir Ancelyn:
Oddly enough I have managed to move through 3 decades without reading a single lovecraftian work.  I know the references though as they keep poping up all throughout pop culture; especially cartoons for some reason. I suspect that little kids and teens would no longer be impressed with Lovecraft in a movie unless it was extremely well done.
