this, I'm always angry that we never see ANY good depiction of some literal 4D being moving completely unlike anything we could conceive.
shit that fricks with your perspective/sense of space/etc is inherently interesting, but hollyids will never go the extra mile and instead cast a black man in a shitty TV show to get back at the evil terrible racist who called his cat Black personman.

I know I am blanking on a couple more bigger movies but there are also a couple indie movies that are decent, made by this duo Benson and Moorhead. Check out 'Spring' if you haven't. I think it was around 2014. They went on to do a couple more movies (resolution, endless, and latest being Synchronic).
I've seen all except Synchronic, and the Void and Endless are valid

>just pretend like you're not a moronic /misc/tard for 2 hours and enjoy the movie for what it is
why should I pretend not to see an obvious forced inclusion and programming in a movie that is otherwise decent
And i'm not even moronic or "pol tard"

theres literally no mention of him being black in the entire movie
he could be any color and the movie would be just as it is
so why does it even matter?

Exactly, the character isn't black someone in the studio decided to make him black for nefarious reasons
Also I have eyes and I can see he is

It's not just a giant octopus.
Imagine that humans are now ants with ant lvl intelligence, and you encounter this "octopus" five times bigger than your planet with actual human lvl intelligence.
I hqd a dish of grilled octopus and a dish of fried calamari at an Italian place the other day. Delicious! Anglos have no idea about good food and good flavor.

she's devouring the infants of another species. Maybe our real fear is that something comes along and does to us what we do to everything else and we are just as incapable of communicating with it our displeasure/fear/pain/etc..

It's a shame Hellboy never did anything with the concept seeing how both Hell&Heaven and Lovecraftian powers are true in universe
Mike Mignola just kept them separate in a nonsensical way
But Hellboy's arm is connected to the Ogdru Jahad but it's never explained how exactly
It implies the Ogdru Jahad and outer olden ones are demons but it never gets a resolution so it's kinda lame
In addition to having both actual "demons" and lovecraft stuff around but being completely random being lame
King in Yellow is pretty creepy, Azathoth never bothered me all that much because he just floats there and listens to music and we just hope never wakes up. But he seems fairly innocuous to me.
Yog-Sothoth is pretty cool just being everything and then some like the universe and beyond all has one mind that can talk to people if it wants to. Pretty neat.
kek. I'm not an anime fan, but I watched this for the hell of it because I like HPL. I genuinely liked it and thought it pretty funny. Also, Hastur bussy.
tentacles were a mistake
There are tentacles other than cephalopod tentacles. Dunno why everybody always goes for them
name one
one jellyfish
not the same type of tentacle, no suckers
Man these things are cool. Notice how it changed color to imitate the plants only as he passes by them when entering the water.
Yeah but anime and video games are cooler
imagine if there was a being that could do this with a part of reality we can't even see haha. it'd be invisible at all times but always right there.
>an ancient evil awakens
I'M FRICKING GOING INSANE
NEGRITO HELP ME!!!
It's pretty clear that it's the non-Euclidian-geometry aspect that makes people go mad, not the tentacles.
OOOOOOOOOOH BRAIN GO CRAY CRAY SAVE ME Black personMAN FROM THIS VILE SHAPE
thats not a shape thats a projection of a shape
What does a 4-D sphere look like?
eek curves

What if the tentacles are of non-euclidian geometry?
is In the Mouth of Madness the only good Lovecraft movie?
necronomicon was kino
Color out of Space was decent too

Seeing a deformed human-animal hybrid go unmentioned by the characters in a Lovecraft story is immersion shattering though

All kino flicks and adaptations.
Blair Witch Project is the most Lovecraft in film form and i will never change my opinion.
Thanks for reading my blog.
The Lucio Fulci hell trilogy probably is the best.
Octopus isn't even that scary he should have done spiders or scorpions they are classics
modern lovecraft story needs a scene of the insane man being dismissed by a soigay because he doesn't have a snopes source
The best Lovecraft movie is Re-Animator. Stuart Gordon made the best Lovecraft movies. And the worst.
It's not just a giant octopus.
Imagine that humans are now ants with ant lvl intelligence, and you encounter this "octopus" five times bigger than your planet with actual human lvl intelligence.
i will grill the giant octopus and make a good ol asado
AAAAAHHH I'M GOING INSANE
What am I looking at here?
the abyss of madness beyond the veil of reality
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>They can literally get away with anything as long as they call it "art"
Sickening.
Jews in the israelitedicial system decided that it's legal for other israelites to make porn under the guise of the 1st Amendment.
I hqd a dish of grilled octopus and a dish of fried calamari at an Italian place the other day. Delicious! Anglos have no idea about good food and good flavor.
had you never had octopus?
Man asiatics are disgusting they would eat anything that comes close to them
Octopus is popular in Spain too.
Tentacles =/= cephalopod
neat
equal divided by equal? what does that even mean?
Anything divided by itself is 1. He's saying
>Tentacles 1 cephalopod
>OMG! IS THAT A...A NAMELESS HORROR BEYOND THE COMPREHENSION OF MORTAL MAN?! A BALEFUL BLASPHEMY EMERGING FROM THE ABHORRENT ABYSS? AN ABYSMAL ABOMINATION AWAKENING FROM ITS SILENT SLUMBER BEYOND THE BORDER OF CREATION!!! NOOOOO I'M GOING INSANE!!!! HELP ME Black personMAN!
im so lonely

>what if we're only scared cuz scary things can like.... eat us?
>this made 10 BC boomers shit their pants
>see a 20 foot drop
>panic attack
I don't get why people put suckers on their Lovecraft tentacles. Just do the the tentacles with no suckers.
To be fair if I looked up into the sky and saw a fricking octopus bigg enough to block out the sun I'd shit my pants
The absolute scale of this alone is cause for some mind frick terror. If you say otherwise you over estimate how much you can actually do.
>Lovecraftian horror
>see irishman

It's better that way, explaining one with the other would cheapen both. Albeit Dreams of Witch House shows Nyarlathotep as demonic
But Hellboy's arm is connected to the Ogdru Jahad but it's never explained how exactly
It implies the Ogdru Jahad and outer olden ones are demons but it never gets a resolution so it's kinda lame

AAAHHHHHHHH Black personMAN SAVE ME
>sees a swarthy person
>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAI'M GOING INSANE
>a writer said the Black person word 100 years ago? AHHHH I'M GOING INSANE
I don't get why everyone obsesses with Cthulhu when Nyarlathotep is so much cooler and IMO scarier.
octopus monster is more iconic than whatever that is
>Nyarlathotep
>>-a tall, lean man of dead black colouration but without the slightest sign of Black features
Sounds like a good guy
Anyone who makes/buys a plushie out of Lovecraft baddies should be drawn and quartered.
I mean the king in yellow, Azathoth etc.. They all have something unique and scary/cool about them.
King in Yellow is pretty creepy, Azathoth never bothered me all that much because he just floats there and listens to music and we just hope never wakes up. But he seems fairly innocuous to me.
Yog-Sothoth is pretty cool just being everything and then some like the universe and beyond all has one mind that can talk to people if it wants to. Pretty neat.

ngl if I saw a octopus that huge I'd lose my mind fr fr
It wont get made but an adaption of Red Hook would probably work on screen. Its basically the movie Angel Heart.

>cosmic horror
>see a giant octopus
