Over here you can find the trailer for Cthulhu, the movie. Which has some nice bits of camera-work, but also what looks like terrible script and acting. Oh well.
You know, I almost hate you for proving that a movie about the Cthulhu mythos casting Tori Spelling was not, in fact, just a terrible rumor. A sort of urban legend. A bad dream after inhaling hair dye and tanning cream.
Fuckers. That looks totally doomed. And not a sniff of tentacles, starspawn or Shoggoth anywhere. This film had better be packed with special effects they're not leaking into the trailer because if it just turns out to be a movie about a cult and they're simply displacing Hollywood Satanism with Hollywood Cthulhu worship then... it deserves to die in the water before it hits the cinemas.
Well, there's always Stuart Gordon's Dagon. I've only seen half of it but the bit I saw was excellent. And even though they are fairly unfaithful, Reanimator and From Beyond are excellent. Necronomicon, which is a loose adaptation of four stories, isn't *awful* either.
Don't forget the hugely enjoyable 'In The Mouth of Madness', for the themes at least.
'Dagon' is reasonably good and worth watching the rest of. I was pretty sure we watched it as a group. Did you fall asleep or something? (It may have been during that era). ;-)
Another good one that comes to mind is 'The Dunwich Horror'. It should be experienced even just for the amazing animation in the opening credits.
