>movie trailer >WHAT IF CTHULU WASN'T JUST A STORY

Why would it take him so long to destroy 1 city?

It's Cthulhu, and there is no way you can translate H.P to the big screen, Dagon and ITMOM are the closest we'll ever get to Lovecraftian horror, but Reanimator will always be the best

Didn't Cthulhu get defeated by being rammed with a small ship in the book?

Kind of underwhelming looking back at it

>>84905091
I would kill myself if that happened

Why do you keep posting this?

If it's good enough for Jaws 4 it's good enough for Cthulhu.

Literally the "hyper-realistic blood" of Lovecraft's time.

It's not like he's in a hurry waking up. I mean a couple of thousand years are nothing to him

I can't even muster the effort to shitpost its just that sad to me.

I should have specified Lovecraft directly onto screen, the mist is also a decent example of lovecraftian elements, however cthulhu himself will never appear on the screen and be half decent
