Title: Better luck next time
Review: Hey, I'm an H.P. Lovecraft reader, and my expectations are high. I'm always hopeful when the title of a movie `says' the film is inspired by HLP. But . . .The writer/director was really--really trying, but he lost control from the beginning. The film began with a series of disjoined images and dialogue which were startling, but there was no suspenseful build up.Okay, it's difficult to put Lovecraft on the big screen anyway, but the stilted dialogue didn't help. The range of acting ability was uneven, and that didn't help. Also, using black and white, well, why? B&W; can be used to build a great mood and suspense but this film had neither so using B&W; footage was pointless. And the blood and gore just for the sake of it . . . better luck next time.If you want to watch Lovecraft on film, rent the `Resurrected' with Chris Sarandon or go back to `Re-Animator.'
