Rent It The Films: Lurker Films has put out a great series DVDs showcasing films based on thework of H. P. Lovecraft. It seems only natural for them to also releasefilms based on the works of Edgar Allen Poe, arguably the best American writerof short fiction. This volume of Poe inspired works, Annabel Lee& Other Tales of Mystery and Imagination is a good first effort,with the main problem being that...
Recommended Lurker films have released (actually re-released I believe) their fifth DVDcollection of films based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft: StrangeAeons . All of the movies on this disc are low budget independentaffairs, but they are all interesting in the way they approach Lovecraft'swork.

Congratulations, Marvel. You have managed to get my attention by getting Kenneth Branagh in talks to helm Thor, which is slated to hit cinemas in 2010.

As may have become apparent over the years, I've long been a fan of HP Lovecraft and always enjoy bringing Lovecraftian humour to light (or is that to dark?) ( here , here and here , for example). I saw this one via Katy Southern on FriendFeed: Selections from H.P. Lovecraft's Brief Tenure as a Whitman's Sampler Copywriter . They're all funny, here's one of them as a taste (hehe): Coconut Creme Swirl...
History doesn't repeat but sometimes it rhymes: The last time there was a total financial meltdown it was a good era for fanboys, in fact the 1930s was pretty much the birthplace of modern fandom itself. Here are my...
I’ve been wondering when Boom! Studios would tackle more Lovecraft titles and bring more creatures from the Cthulhu mythos to print. The answer is December, when H.P. Lovecraft’s prose poem, Nyarlathotep is brought to live in a 32-page hard cover tome, illustrated by Chuck BB. “I was absolutely excited to take on a Lovecraft project,” said [...] ShareThis

I am a sucker for lists and “best of” compilations, even if they can be somewhat annoying and … well, wrong. This weekend, Britain’s Daily Telegraph gang were at it again, assembling a rundown of what they think are the 50 über villains from literature. Naturally, crime-fiction bad guys feature heavily in the list. The Telegraph remarks: It’s perhaps the nature of grown-up literature that it
