Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: R (Violence)
Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; could be a very loose adaptation)
A fairly detailed "Lovecraftian" pastiche, making use of many of Lovecraft's creations.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
