where are all the big H.P lovecraft films?
Doesn't Netflix have Dagon and Necronomicron: Book of the Dead? I looove John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy and The Mist RULES! Frank Darabont has also made many a Stephen King flick (Shawshank especially).
Off the top of my head, I would say HP Lovecraft isn't simply about madness driving horrors, it's biological horror, rather than supernatural. So almost anything by David Cronenberg, a lot of Japanese and Korean film, such as Akira, Uzemaki, The Ring movies, (which is based upon a Japanese folklore, but in modern times became biological horror, the Ring is actually a hybrid biological, technological virus), etc.
Also, the Matthew McCant-spell-his-last-name's True Detective breeches the Lovecraftian realm on a subtle and then not so subtle way in the end, such as the concept of "black stars" in a constant daytime of white background. I would say it's pre-Lovecraftian mythos from authors in the 1800s writing nihilistic almost biological horror, more just heavy uncomfortable writing. I can't recall the primary author who inspired Lovecraft beyond Bram Stoker's The Lair of the White Worm.
Anyway. I love horror, thrillers, suspense, nihilism, pulp and gothic literature.
WTF: Biggest Human Puppet Show
You have to take copious amounts of LSD to come up with something like that. You have to. While David Cronenberg and Lynch tell you their worst nightmares.
Napoleon Dynamite is real and a girl
Looks like David Cronenberg and William S. Burroughs. Probably discussing Naked Lunch.
Is that David Cronenberg at 3:42?

Stephen Fry On His Role In The Hobbit
yeah. saw "Bad Taste" when it came out, as a teenager, and loved it, which is why i was a bit surprised when i heard he was going to do LotR. he was David Cronenberg with punchlines, y'know?
i also remember thinking, wow, Derek put on a few pounds, eh? i guess Dereks really don't run... but it suits him well. like Kevin Smith, or Tom Selleck with a mustache. just looks goofy without it.
nice little shoutout to Wellington there, too! @berticus just got a chubby.

But if this had to do with David Cronenberg the people themselves would start having dangling penises from their necks.

It's weird, after Hellraiser, I felt that nightbreed was somewhat hokey...David Cronenberg was the only good part of the movie as far as I was concerned. The "monsters" were all kind of silly in a side-show sort of way.
on that note i agree,while i wouldnt call the monsters "hokey", everything paled after hellraiser.
i mean come on.."the BOX..you opened it..we came"
clive barker made the demons TALK.
i still get the hairs on my arms to stand up when that scene comes on.
i think clive barker made the "monsters" less horrific to show that it was mankind that was the real monster.
thats my take anyways.
Naw naw, good points. I don't think we are that far apart on the film...

A bit of a tense moment by Ed Harris
Really.. people.. As you well know, Ed Harris is NOT the director of "A History Of Violence" it's David Cronenberg (who was sitting directly to Ed's right)
Yes, edited for effect.
boo.
