Title: Intelligent horror
Review: Most horror films today are about violence and misogyny. Their fantastic elements are just window-dressing for torture porn. The Whisperer in Darkness reaches back to better days, when horror was an element of fantasy. H. P. Lovecraft's fantasy and science fiction writings have (appropriately enough) a cult following, but this film shows that his stories are accessible to a much broader audience. The H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society made the happy decision to make their own adaptations of HPL stories, and they do it well. Other reviewers have gone into detail; let me just say that I enjoyed the film thoroughly, and would recommend it to others without hesitation.
