7/10
Not for everyone, but some will love it.

If you enjoyed the Real Ghostbusters episode "Collect Call of Cthulhu," the Bethesda video game "Dark Corners of the Earth" and were disappointed in "Dagon," then you'll probably enjoy this film. I enjoyed it greatly, but that's probably because I wanted to enjoy it. It's not a *GREAT FILM* by any stretch of the imagination, but it is different and interesting and fun.

If you've never read a Lovecraft story, are annoyed by low-budget special effects and find silent/black and white films pretentious and inaccessible, then you'll probably hate this. You'll hate this like cancer.

Watch the DVD if for no other reason than the behind-the-scenes footage of hairy, naked, fat, dirty cultists writhing around in front of a green screen. I know that sounds awful, but it's pretty funny.
