Saw this last night. I thought it was just ok. I still think "The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill" is the best adaptation/homage to this story. I got a lot more mileage out of MANDY.
There's a was pre-recorded post-movie interview with Stanley and the cast. Stanley says this is the first part of a loose Lovecraft trilogy he wants to do. Says he's already working on a script for THE DUNWICH HORRORLast edited by Scott; 01-23-2020, 01:07 PM."When I die, I hope to go to Accra"

I really wanted to like it but I hated it. It was mid-way through that I realized that I thought Dust Devil was a "pretty good" movie. Not bad at all, but maybe a little over-hyped? Whereas Hardware was decent. Some good visuals but it plodded along.
All the elements were in place for something great. What happened?"Ah! By god's balls what licentiousness!"

I'd say it was average. Maybe hype played against it? Sure. Okay. But I honestly don't think adapting this Lovecraft story shouldn't be too difficult.
I didn't like his Mother of Toads short either. Only thing I enjoyed was the casting of Catriona MacColl and the Eibon symbol."Ah! By god's balls what licentiousness!"

On the more general topic of niche films that get good responses at film festivals: I find myself tired of films being declared "instant cult classics." The whole point of cult followings is that they're not achieved "instantly"!Last edited by Curwen; 01-26-2020, 03:19 AM.

Yeah, I don't understand why people use RT instead of MetaCritic or something else. RT only counts how many reviews are "positive" vs. "negative." So, if every critic in the world rated a film 6 out of 10, it would be 100% on RT. Seems like fairly misleading and useless insight to me, at least compared to something like MC that actually calculates the specifics and would only give a film 100% if the film's true average score was 10 out of 10. In that case, unless you take a real existential PoV and always dismiss all critics' opinions entirely (in which case, you'd never have any reason to check scores on any sites), MC's would be much more informative about what quality film to exist.
