-Reanimator
-The thing (1982)
-In the mouth of madness
-Prince of darkness too, while you're at it, might as well complete the apocalypse trilogy
-Event Horizon

Those from the top of my head, I'm sure there are more.

The original Wicker Man. Watch the remake if you want to have a laugh.

I would say the first two Hellraisers are fairly Lovecraftian, not necessarily in the same way. The first one is more of a straight horror movie in that it's very surface level/slasher-esque horror and less about the terror in the implications surrounding the Cenobite's existence, though there is some horror from the fact that they are immortal beings who are beyond anything resembling human morality or mindset. The second one delves more into the idea of there being a separate reality where the only driving force of it's existence is pushing the boundaries of sheer hedonistic experience. Also the only god there is is a giant floating obelisk that emits beams of darkness.

It may feel off from the recommendations you were getting so far, but I'd say The VVitch has in a sense a very lovecraftian feel

There is hardly any visual horror, but the atmosphere and presented world are truly haunting - slowly building up the spiral of madness through feeling of isolation and cold, eerie and unknown surroundings/ landscapes

I'd say the first hellraiser is very lovecraftian, or at least hitting themes inspired by him. I never saw it as a slasher movie, it probably gained slasher-like notoriety from the sequels and pinhead gaining freddy/jason-like personality status.

I've never watched any Hellraiser sequel, though.
