CGiii Comment

Oooh the Lovecraft cult - what a load of utter nonsense but, for some, totally intoxicating - poor lurves.

There are some cute little touches...and, a hearty congratulations must go to Leman for his sheer inventiveness. He manages to create a distinct atmosphere which is a major achievement considering the budget.

There is a definite talent here - as for LGBT interest - you have to be inventive.

The(ir) Blurb...

A faithful rendition of H.P. Lovecraft's short story, presented in the style of a silent film from the 1920s. While organizing the affairs of his late Uncle, a man accidentally stumbles across a series of clues toward an ancient horror lurking beneath the sea, waiting for the time when the "Stars are Right" and it shall be free to wreck havoc upon mankind. In his investigation he learns of an artist influenced by strange dreams, a police officer discovering an ancient cult worshiping "Great Cthulhu" and ultimately a tale of sailors encountering sanity-shattering horror as they discover Cthulhu himself.
