    Documentary Celebrates the Long Reach of Lovecraft's Tentacles

    Coming in two weeks, the documentary Lovecraft: Fear of the Unknown explores what inspired H.P. Lovecraft to invent the tentacular Cthulhu mythos - and why his work continues to inspire horror and science fiction creators today.

    The film focuses mostly on Lovecraft's influence, and includes interviews with luminaries like Guillermo Del Toro, Neil Gaiman, John Carpenter, Caitlin Kiernan, Stuart Gordon, Ramsey Campbell, and Lovecraft scholar S.T. Joshi.
