Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: (not rated?) (probably equivalent of a PG or R for at least some Violence, and possibly Profanity/Adult Content and Brief Nudity)
Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)
There is nothing particularly "Lovecraftian" about this film, beyond the tentacle monster, though this particular example of the trope is strange and irrational enough to earn the description than usual.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
