| 12.27.09 | Netflix | For as long as I've been a Lovecraft fan (Read a bunch of his stuff in like 10th grade, been a slumbering fan ever since) and the amount of films that've (unsuccessfully) tried to adapt his stuff - films that i've felt compelled to sit through by the way - I'm amazed that it took this long to get a biographical documentary on the dude. So even though I put this movie on at the end of every night while at my parents and ended up watching in 10-20 minute snippets before falling asleep, I think this was a pretty decent doc. It explains the man, his basic life plot, and talks about certain specific stories. There's even a mention of the tabletop RPG that got me into the books in the first place. It's not a particularly memorable doc... there's no magic in the interviews or anything like that, but it's still pretty fun for existing fans. Makes me think I should revisit my long-dormant writing project. sigh... |
