The Whisperer in Darknesss and The Call of Cthulhu
The Whisperer in Darkness directed by Sean Branney – 2011 – 103m.
Lovecraft’s classic tale of alien horror bursts onto the screen in the style of the classic horror films of the 1930s. Professor Albert Wilmarth investigates legends of strange creatures in the remote hills of Vermont. His inquiry reveals a terrifying glimpse of the truth that lurks behind the legends. A thrilling adventure of supernatural horror.
The Call of Cthulhu directed by Andrew Leman – 2005 – 47m.
A silent movie shot in Mythoscope, is HP Lovecraft’s most famous story. It is the only story to feature the celebrated monster Cthulhu and follows an adventurous young man’s crusade to unravel the Cult of Cthulhu. The story embodies HPL’s nihilistic world view, his cosmic perspective, and his sense that mankind is doomed by its own insignificance.
