The Call of Cthulhu

Tue, 20 May 2008 18:43:11 GMT

The Call of Cthulhu, an all new silent film, is HP Lovecraft's most famous story. It is the only story to feature the celebrated monster Cthulhu and in many ways it encapsulates the ideas that went on to permeated Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. The film follows the story's three-part narrative construction, and it moves from the 1920s to 1908 to the1870s and back, as the story does. The story embodies HPL's nihilistic world view, his cosmic perspective, and his sense that mankind is doomed by its own insignificance. And it's a pretty good globe-trotting adventure story. (Spoiler Warning) In the story, a dying professor leaves his great-nephew a collection of documents pertaining to the Cthulhu Cult. The nephew begins to learn why the study of the cult so fascinated his grandfather. Bit-by-bit he begins piecing together the dread implications of his grandfather's inquiries, and soon he takes on investigating the Cthulhu cult as a crusade of his own. As he pieces together the dreadful and disturbing reality of the situation, his own sanity begins to crumble. In the end, he passes the torch to his psychiatrist, who in turn hears Cthulhu's call.

The H.P. Lovecraft ® Collection Volume 3: Out of Mind

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 21:41:18 GMT

Acclaimed by Lovecraft fans worldwide, this Bravo!Canada television show starring Christopher Heyerdahl (Blade: Trinity, The Chronicles of Riddick & "Kingdom Hospital") is available now for the first time on DVD and includes many extras. "Out of Mind" casts an entertaining eye on the work of American writer H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), one of the early 20th century's masters of gothic-horror literature. The film offers an encounter with Lovecraft and enters into his world. Engaging in a kind of game around the writer, the film playfully winks at many of the themes characteristic of his work: the occult, cursed books, monstrous creatures, and the world of dreams. Out of Mind draws its inspiration from Lovecraft's actual personal correspondence and many of his stories, carrying the viewer through a labyrinth "beyond the wall of sleep."

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:09:30 GMT

The cult of the Sleeping God is on the rise. Mr. Moon is dealing with the current emergency using methods imitated by the Night Scholars (methods that he does not fully understand). When a Dreamer on a South London housing estate performs the ritual sacrifice of her two young children, Mr. Moon closes down the subsequent police investigation and has the Dreamer quickly interned at a secret location. Moon and his silent assistants deliver a grotesque sculpture found at the scene of the crime to Kenneth Reece Warren, a man who already knows too much. Warren was a psychiatrist and a former Night Scholar who now owns The Outsider Art Gallery in Hoxton. Moon wants to discover more about the occult Sigil that can be used to restrict the influence of the Sleeping God on the Dreamers. He uses an experimental truth drug on Warren and proceeds to interrogate him about his experiences during the Falklands war and his knowledge of the Sigil. Warren tells a disturbing tale: he was working for the Ministry of Defense on a covert mission to study the liberation forces in action, part of a large scale psychological profile of the modern British fighting man. Warren?s unit, led by Colonel Shaw, were instructed to establish a temporary command and control centre in an abandoned army hide on the south side of the islands. They dispatched a five-man team, Delta Three, to an isolated farmhouse in search of an Argentine patrol. However, the unit members returned traumatized by what they experienced there. When Warren?s psychiatric skills were required his mission was compromised and Colonel Shaw decided to lead a night march to secure Cairnstone Farm. Inside the walls of the dilapidated farmhouse, Warren encountered Mr. Wilson, who was possessed by a soul of some entity from Earth?s distant past. Wilson reveals to Warren the origin of the Sleeping God and gives him a shield against its influences ? the Sigil. Moon is shaken by the chilling implications of Warren?s narrative. However it strengthens his conviction to re
