The Void is the true Lovecraft KINO—not Shilling
they should have just talked about it for the whole film and then go and hit him with a boat at the end

Also, are people really afraid of a clown? In both adaptions pennywise never came off as really spooky. I do have to admit that I find the concept of a celestial being (for a lack of a better term) running around as a clown and spooking children quite retarded. Haven't read the book tho because I hate kings style

lovecraft was a fucking hack who autistically focused on world building so hard because his climaxes always fell back on the idea of "woah this thing is so crazy and scary ahhh my brain my eyes im dead now".
Seriously read shadow over innsmouth, fucking excellent atmosphere when the story is actually moving, but the other 90% of the time its the old drunk literally giving pages upon pages upon FUCKING PAGES OF EXPOSITION ABOUT OL CAPTAIN OBED MARSH
funny how Hounds of Tindalos is better than anything lovecraft ever did and it was written by one of his contemporaries who took inspiration from him

Lovecraft is shit because he is shit period.
His "so spooky i can't even describe it" is the cheapest, most laughable cop out ever.
the lovecraftian explanation for pennywise's origins is just flavor text you moron.
yes, the story of It is basically about an evil shapeshifting clown who feeds on fear. Pennywise could have been a demon or an alien or a psychic manifestation or ANYTHING.
the lovecraftian bit is mostly irrelevant and pretty much just a nod to lovecraft fans. except that lovecraft fans are so fucking autistic and insufferable that you start screeching "NO THAT'S NOT REAL LOVECRAFTIAN MUH PURITY" whenever any hint of something lovecraftian appears, even if it wasn't even necessary to begin with.
so fuck you and fuck lovecraft and fuck drumpf

if lovecraft didn't have have a cool name people wouldn't namedrop him as much, that's a fact

Well, you dumb cunts have obviously never read Lovecraft at all, because he describes most of the cosmic Old Ones in his stories. How else do you think we have illustrations of them? We know what Cthulhu looks like. We know what the faggots out of Dunwich look like. Etc. Etc.
tl;dr
Lovecraft is a good author and gets shit on by people who just regurgitate what they hear on the internet.

t. true pleb
>if you look at my absurd bullshit creatures (octopus+dragon+human caricature+100m tall = not really scary) you go insane!!!! ISNT THAT SCARY?
Also his style of writing is even worse than king's, a remarkable feat, quite impossible
You're gonna love my clowns
