In reply to Nathan. Ah, you should have tried to make it through THE RESURRECTED. It's a pretty faithful adaptation in its general contours, more so than THE HAUNTED PALACE.

In reply to blake. Re: THE RESURRECTED: It does not help a Lovecraft tale to add a major female character, and then give the role to someone whose acting raises a rash. Re: ARACHNIA: Four of the six characters qualified as "Odious Comic Relief," a lot more than I could stand. I didn't even make to the stop-motion.

You abandoned THE RESURRECTED? The Dan O’Bannon Lovecraft film?

And Arachnia? But…but…Stop-motion spiders!!!!

In reply to Naaman Brown.

Not “hard to find” as such — nothing really is, these days — but they want MONEY to watch it on Prime. (Gasp!)

Iron Sky was fun when I saw it (allowing for the rough edges) but they wandered about and lost it all in the sequel, I hear. I guess the sequel is hard to find for a reason.
