A Remarkable Survival from out of the Elder Dark...
|
This DVD presents H.P. Lovecraft's most famous story 'The Call of Cthulhu' as if it were a 1920s silent movie, entirely appropriate for a story published in 1926. This a remarkable if low-budget production and clearly was a labour of love for all concerned. I am sure H.P. Lovecraft would have been highly entertained by it!
Might be heavy going for the non-enthusiast, due to the silent format (albeit with very atmospheric music) and a film style which is very reminiscent of 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari' or maybe a mixture of 'Metropolis' and 'Nosferatu'! Period-style special effects and characterful acting add enormously to the atmosphere, which is chilling in places.
I highly recommend this DVD of 'The Call of Cthulhu' to any aficionado of H.P. Lovecraft or anyone wanting to find out more about the Mythos. I feel it is an essential addition to any Lovecraft collection.
