This is actually the best one-volume Lovecraft compilation I have ever come across. The pages are excellent, as is the binding, and the selection of stories definitely gives you an excellent body of his works. I very much recommend this edition. |

It would be such a poor, poor version of it, if it were, indeed, Cthulhu.
Cthulhu may be a hulking deity of the sea, but his power comes from his supreme ability to affect people on a mental level. His return will be heralded by excessive nightmares and widespread paranoia/hysteria, and that in people's subsequent insanity in the midst of such a being that implies our cosmic inconsequence, we would revel in the face of such oblivion. Billions of humans laughing themselves to death, most offering themselves willingly to be sacrifices to our New God.

A Cthulhu movie would most certainly turn out to be complete . Especially a Cthulhu movie by J. J. Abrams. That's just too big to be stuffed into the tiny world of a movie.
Although, I heard Guillermo del Toro will be doing "At the Mountains of Madness". That might turn out nice. |

Totally agreed. Although the HPL Historical Society's recent silent film adapted from the short story, itself, is really quite mint. A big-budget Hollywood monster flick on Cthulhu though? that noise.

Yeah, that definitely has potential.
As far as Lovecraftesque cinema goes, it doesn't get much better than Stuart Gordon's works: From Beyond, Reanimator, Dagon... best horror movies ever made. |

| I would love to see a movie based on Cthulu. I think it'd be a far better approach for Cloverfield than the mutated Whale. Till then, I'll just keep watching old Japenese Godzilla movies. :p |
