Direct adaptation, in my opinion the best adaptation of a Lovecraft Story

https://youtu.be/XHuY2wXTd0o

Other adaptation I like, however is cheesy and played on a humoristic way is "The colour out of space" adaptation on an 80's movie "Creepshow" directed by George A. Romero and adapted and acted by Stephen King

And in a more serious tone Lovecraftian setting John Carpenter's "In the mouth of Madness"

Event horizon is more warhammer material as opposed to lovecraft writings
>>
The first couple Hellraiser movies always struck me as a little bit lovecraft themed despite the lack of any huge madness inducing monsters. Although its horror bits are more along the lines of event horizon.

I'm trying to remember a J-horror found footage where there were these big black tentacles in the sky, but I can't. I thought it might have been Occult (2009) but I'm not sure.
>>
>>17196612
It was a Koji Shiraishi film, either Cult or Occult. Good films, both of them, and the one you're talking about definitely had a good Lovecraftian vibe. I always get those two films confused lol

His film, Noroi: The Curse, is a popular one round these parts, and also has a pseudo-Lovecraftian thing going on, IMO. The investigation into the myths of Shimokage village, etc, all reminded me of the "piecing together of dissociated knowledge" that drove so many of his stories.

I think you are dead on. I totally had the same feel when I watched this movie.

In Event Horizon, Sam Neil's character mentions Hell. The Warhammer 40k books, especially The Horus Heresy arch, say this many times. The "Warp" is the space between space. It's a place that, unfortunately must be used for FTL travel, but that has risks. While in the "Warp," everything/one is susceptible to corruption and taint. Chaos. The Warhammer lore is much like the Event Horizon film- Chaos starts as whispering voices and has an unusual suggestion to it. Like a Siren's song. Horus' schism was born from heeding these suggestions.

'Cause it's Idris goddamn Elba, you ignorant fuck
>>
>>17197068
Cuz it's nice to have Lovecraft's racists views (due to the times he lived) defied by having a black actor portray a major character in the series. progressivism.
Also Idris is fucking awesome

On the topic of J-horror, how do those movies get subbed? Because compared to anime, the interest much more niche, so there is not as much interest to sub it. Are there actual dedicated subbing group for j-horror? Or is just labors of love by random horror fans?

Event Horizon was just a sci-fi Hellraiser.

Take your bull fantasy somewhere else. Idris Elba sucks.
>>
>>17199104
Don't feel bad. Prince of Darkness is slow. You have to really watch the Apocalypse Trilogy in chronological order to appreciate it. The cool shit really happens in the last half-hour. I have to refresh on it from time to time.

Also, this guy:
>>17196603

Herbert West is an absolute riot! If you are a Lovecraff fan, the last fifteen minutes is excellent! Great film.
>>
>>17199115
You need to watch the trilogy in its entirety:

The Thing
>Alien race capable of mimicking its prey is unleashed on Earth
Prince of Darkness
>The AntiChrist is resurrected
At The Mouth of Madness
>A novelists writings ultimately unleash extradimensional deities onto the world. (at the hands of a Lovecraftian mechanism)

John Carpenter meant for these movies to be watched in order, and to remain somewhat canon in nature; It's the same world and timeframe these stories are taking place in. How fucked is mankind? It's dark as hell.
>>
>>17199100
That was a really good short movie. Fits the Lovecraft requirement nicely.

My dad took me to watch At The Mouth of Madness when I was a kid. I don't know what the fuck he was thinking, but after the initial shock I found it exhilarating and really stimulating.

Now I need to watch the other two.
>>
Surprised no one has mentioned Banshee Chapter. Fucking fantastic movie. Have watched it a few times, and it still frightens me without fail. Highly recommended.

It's on Netflix, too.

Mouth Of Madness, Event Horizon...
So clearly, the key to Lovecraftian madness is Sam Neill?

I also liked his role in Daybreakers, which I loved until the second half.

I don't know if that is based on house on the borderlands, but if so, it's a story that predated lovecraft (and strongly influenced him). No doubt a film adaptation would in turn be influenced by all the portrayals of lovecraft though.

Here's wikipedia about the title of the fucking movie: "The film pays tribute to the work of seminal horror writer H. P. Lovecraft, with many references to his stories and themes. Its title is a play on Lovecraft's novella, At the Mountains of Madness, and insanity plays as great a role in the film, as it does in Lovecraft's fiction."
>>
Okay ill admit ive never even read a lovecraftian style book let alone his actual personal work.

What ive gathered from games/tv/etc is that it has to do with themes of ancient beings, cults who worship them and insanity? I know that WoW and Bloodborne are pretty far off in terms of truth but they have the correct basic idea right?

>>17205389
Don't know about WoW, but Bloodborn is very Lovecraft when you get into the real chunk of the story.

Yeah, word is studio execs were pushing for a happy ending and PG13, and Del Toro wasn't having none of that. Production actually halted because he flat out refused to do an adaptation if he wasn't allowed to make his best attempt at doing the source material justice.
>>
>>17208528
Not who you were replying to, but playing Devil's Advocate;
On the one hand, you could have her perception of Roland as The Really Bad Man be due to his invasion of her mind, something she only experiences when Odetta is taking over, so it causes her immense fear and anger. That would probably work regardless of the gunslinger's skin color.

On the other hand, that would mean we don't get to have some respectable actress screaming "I IS GOAN KEEL YOU HONKY MAHFAHS"

So yeah, as much as I like him as an actor, I'm against Elba playing Roland.
>>
>>17200938
It's not at all based on House on the Borderlands.
I went into it thinking it might be, and while it was by no means a bad film, I left disappointed because of that.
>>
>>17208638
He actually agreed to do the PG-13 as long as they let him do it his way.
The line between film ratings has become blurred in recent times, so he could pull it off without sacrificing too much.

Despite how shitty movie this is overall, it's depressing to think this is more Lovecraft than most of the squiddy wanna be Lovecraftian shit that gets done.

Especially Stuart Gordon. Fuck that hack.

It's not about tentacle monsters or fishmen, people, it's about horror of the unknown and indescribable and an inconsequentialness in the face of cosmic forces.

Idris Elba is seriously being considered for the role.

One of the writers said he thinks he is the perfect choice. Even Stephen King supports a black gunslinger.

It wouldn't matter if it didn't drastically change the dynamic and relationship between characters, especially in how they develop and grow throughout the books.

Since almost nothing in the 40k universe is original, it would be great to find the original source it's based on.

Still lovecraftian, he wrote Herbert west

On a side I'm like, "dumbass PC shit."
On the other, "It's Idris Elba."

Lovecraft and hodgson are similar, but lovecraft was largely unaware of him. Most of Lovecraft's inspiration comes from his views on cosmicism

William hope Hodgson
He wrote several novels and book and it's awesome.
A famous one is "the house on the borderland". And you should read it.

>>17213532
When this book was released, Lovecraft was 18yo. It has all the basis of lovecraftian litterature, i'm sure it was a major source of inspiration for HPL.

>Lovecraftian movies
>nobody posts the one thats actually based off Lovecrafts work

Cheesey as fuck but pretty entertaining and good element of mystery

What the fuck. I am so sick of this retarded happy ending requirement. Americans are retarded little children.

He is a decent actor, but I don't think he is right for the gunslinger.

He could do it and be fantastic, but from his previous roles I don't think he is a good fit.

I think Hugh Jackman would be a good choice.

Citation please
>>
>>17213951
I agree. Citation needed on this "trilogy" idea. I've seen all three of these movies and I don't the correlation. Seems like They Live could easily be switched out for Prince of Darkness and you could call it a trilogy.
Also, Prince of Darkness is not a good movie. The concept is very cool and the script is alright but, some of the acting is very dodgy. Particularly from the young chinese guy. Holy shit what a mistake to give that guy so much dialogue and screen time. Every scene he's in feels like watching a high school play. Terrible.

>>17207323
You clearly didn't read very thoroughly; Roland is very clearly described as a "blue eyed gunslinger" moreover, racially charged insults toward and from him will become inconsistent should the character be portrayed by a black man.

We don't care that he's black, we care that the movie is going to be shit because some retard will have to rewrite parts of the script.
>>
I think Starry Eyes is a good lovecraftian film. I would recommend checking it out.
>>
>>17213995
I'm a fan of the series and I still think the whole thing could use a major rewrite.
>>
>>17205799
Can someone run me down on this game, is it an RPG?
>>
>>17212138
Agreed, but this is far from a shitty movie.
>>
>>17193553
Decent film, just watched.
>>
Got halfway through The Last Witch Hunter then switched off, absolute steaming pile of turd.

Avoid at all costs.
>>
>>17214413
good one. saw this a couple of weeks ago. definitely lovecraftian and the lead actress did a great job and has nice tits to be perfectly honest, mi familia.
>>
>>17197828
this was neat.
the ending kind of made me laugh though.
>>
Glad this thread is still here. Have found some good shit to watch thanks to it.

Noroi is far superior

There's some great Lovecraftian stuff out there you guys need to sample.
>>
>>17218502
>Resurrected

Correction. This one was mentioned.
>>
>>17218502
>Dagon

I kind of like it but let's be honest, it is awful
>>
>>17218477
i'll take a look later
>>
>>17218599
Was going to say the same. Watchable and entertaining, but not the greatest.
>>
>>17204111
Resolution is a fucking great film that touches on some well Lovecraftian themes.
>>
>>17211769
It was less "frozen tundra monster movie" that caused the issue, more "Ancient alien race's ruins being studied by an ill-fated research team, where they learn that said ancient aliens were behind genetically engineering humanity. Also black slime monsters."

It's Victorian-era Dark Souls, but with more focus on dodging and being aggressive than on slower-moving combat.
Action RPG, high difficulty curve, very satisfying and lots of fun to play.
The "Lovecraftian" elements are very, very toned down at first, but as you progress further into the story and learn more about the lore behind the game, the cosmic horror level ramps up very quickly.

>>17215230
Were you expecting it to be a heady examination of the inherent futility of mankind's endless struggles against an uncaring cosmos?
It was a fun Vin Diesel action-fantasy. I enjoyed it for what it was.
>>
>>17218502
I still think season one of True Detective is some of the best television ever produced.
>>
>>17218502
Absentia was worse than dog shit
>>
>>17219438

Nah, mate. A few scenes had great atmosphere and all things considered it punched above its weight class.

When will /x/ learn their are actual gradations between

there there, they're their own.

>>17219373

That raid long shot was cinematic beauty. Shit I've never been that in suspense.
>>
>>17219438
Disagree. It wasn't my favorite movie ever, but I loved the concept behind it. There were some decent scares there. Pretty enjoyable as long as you go into it with an open mind.

>times he lived

You mean, when you didn't get crucified for giving your opinion.

People are just as racist today, amigo.

It's a good horror movie and has a lot of unique things to it but... best...film?
