Lovecraft would have found this "interpretation" horrifying
20 September 2022
The casting and directing seemed straight from some community theatre, or High School level acting school. There was little or no attempt at subtlety, nor continuity. The acting was hyper melodramatic. The editing and scenes were choppy and awkward. It seems a sad attempt to capture Lovecraftian popularity, by very amateur filmmakers. This seems sadly what streaming services are now stocking their shelves with.

Lovecraft had such a delightfully rich way of describing the horror in his imagination, it is sad to see it butchered so. I recall being enraptured by an English Teacher reading to us from "Rats in the Walls"
