"The Call of Cthulhu" silent film: Surprisingly Good! by Mischief Maker 02/24/2008, 9:38am PST
In case you never heard of it, a movie adaptation of "The Call of Cthulhu" came out fairly recently. The twist is that they did it as a 20s silent film. This let them avoid the hazards of their low special effects budget and Lovecraft's bloated prose to make for a taut and creepy horror film with at least one moment that made me jump (though it does benefit a great deal from the soundtrack.) You'll probably appreciate the film more if you read the short story first.

I can't wait for their upcoming talkie adaptation of The Whisperer in the Darkness.
