My wife didn’t enjoy the fact that the film had the moxy to [Spoiler Alert]

but even she generally enjoyed it. I occasionally visit the HP Lovecraft Historical Society site to see if they have any new movies announced. They once talked about an all stop-motion adaptation of DREAM-QUEST OF UNKNOWN KADATH, which I would *love* to see.

Lovecraft movie adaptations (most are as bad as attempts to film Ray Bradbury stories), I was pleasantly surprised at “The Whisperer in Darkness”. Not perfect but watchable.

As an aside, it was pointed years ago out by a Lovecraft scholar that the events in his stories “The Whisperer in Darkness” and “The Dunwich Horror ” occur in parallel, the same time frame but different locations.
