<br />
==Summary==<br />
<!-- <br />
(Short, Spoiler-Free Summary; tag-line or elevator pitch.)<br />
--><br />
<br />
The boundaries between our world and those of literary horror creatures have weakened. Now the creations of H. P. Lovecraft, Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe, and other dark masters are coming to life. It’s up to Harriet Lovecraft and Winston Poe, the long-lost descendants of these famous writers, to restore the natural order by any means necessary.<br />

==Details==<br />
<!--<br />
This list of details is partly intended for those films produced by<br />
film-makers, performers, producers/studios, etc. that tend to make<br />
"Lovecraftian" films, for ease of finding related or similar films.<br />
This list is also partly intended to make it easier to identify a<br />
specific film out of many with the same name, to make them easier to<br />
tell apart - some stories have been adapted numerous times by different<br />
amateur short film makers! Some films have a "TVTropes" page, which<br />
will often detail obscure "Lovecraftian" elements of a film that this<br />
wiki misses, and, if a TVTropes page exists, it can be a useful<br />
resource. Feel free to remove any sections that are irrelevant, <br />
unknown, or unnecessary.<br />

==Ratings==<br />
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===<br />
<!--<br />
I've been including this information for those of us who like to watch<br />
Lovecraft movies with family, including younger children, and want to<br />
avoid any awkwardness.<br />
E.G., "Rated: R (Violence, Nudity, Language....)" <br />
--><br />
* Rated: Mature (Violence, Adult Content, Profanity)<br />
<br />
===Tentacle Ratings===<br />
<!--<br />
(Use one of the following lines, and edit it as appropriate. Follow it with an<br />
explanation/description of how it qualifies as "Lovecraftian", such as any<br />
name-dropping of Lovecraft's creations, whether it's based on a Lovecraft story<br />
and if so which one, whether it's simply "feels" kind of Lovecraftian, etc.)<br />
Some examples: one tentacle only if the mood and atmosphere are right but it's <br />
not based on a Lovecraft story and contains no specific Lovecraftian elements even<br />
in spirit; one tentacle only if it mentions specifically Lovecraftian elements but<br />
isn't based on Lovecraft story and doesn't have the right mood; one tentacle only <br />
if it has some tentacle monsters but the mood isn't very Lovecraftian and specific<br />
Lovecraft creations aren't mentioned by name; if the film is based on a recognizable<br />
Lovecraft story it automatically gets two tentacles, and may get a third or more<br />
depending on if Lovecraftian monsters are present, the mood and atmosphere are<br />
suitably Lovecraftian in tone, and if the work is particularly accurate and true to<br />
the spirit of the original story.<br />
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)<br />
* SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; vaguely similar in tone, could be a very loose adaptation)<br />
* SSS__ (Three Tentacles: Lovecraftian, was probably written by Lovecraft himself.)<br />
* SSSS_ (Four Tentacles: Unusually Lovecraftian; written by Lovecraft, a remarkably faithful adaptation)<br />
* SSSSS (Five Tentacles: definitively Lovecraftian; everything you'd expect from a Lovecraft adaptation and more)<br />
--><br />
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:<br />
* SSS__ (Three Tentacles: Lovecraftian, was probably written by Lovecraft himself.)<br />
<br />
''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of <br />
how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''<br />

==Synopsis (SPOILERS)==<br />
<!-- <br />
(Should be an objective, unbiased, detailed synopsis of film's plot and themes.<br />
The following optional spoiler code apparently works badly on smart phones.) <br />
--><br />
{{spoiler|<br />
* Volume 1 (2009-2010):<br />
** Juggernaut: Rampaging goblin-men are holding captives in a backwoods cabin. Do they want to eat them, impregnate them, or both? Harriet Lovecraft and Winstin Poe mount a rescue mission into the Juggernaut lair.<br />
** Dumas: Before [[Bram Stoker]] created Dracula, he warmed up with the vampire Dumas, an artiste of death and the canvas. Now Dumas has come to life, and he wants Lovecraft to pose for his ultimate creation.<br />
** Leviathan: An unpublished [[H.P. Lovecraft]] story summons a fish god to a tiny island where cultists have trussed up a virgin for sacrifice. Our heroes embark on a frantic maritime fight for survival.<br />
* Volume 2 (2016-2017):<br />
** Wraiths: <br />
** Moppet: <br />
** Loup Garou: <br />
** The King in Yellow: <br />

==Notes==<br />
<br />
===Comments, Trivia, Dedication===<br />
<!-- <br />
(Optional; describe anything known or reported by experts about the <br />
origin of the story or inspiration for elements of it; list dedication, <br />
trivia, images, anything else of note <br />
--><br />
<br />
<br />
===Associated Mythos Elements===<br />
<!--<br />
(A list of notable Lovecraftian creatures, tomes, Great Old Ones, characters, <br />
etc. that appear in the film/show/etc. It helps to specify if it just takes<br />
the form of general "name-dropping" (someone mentions "Yog-Sothoth!", but <br />
Yog-Sothoth doesn't actually appear; a random creepy tome in the background<br />
is labeled ''Necronomicon'' but never actually appears, a character is wearing<br />
a Miskatonic University sweatshirt but the school never makes an appearance...)<br />
Remove any sections that do not apply. Note that some unnamed monsters may be<br />
considered "stand-ins" that are effectively the same as specific Lovecraftian<br />
monsters, though the film never makes that explicitly clear - for example, a<br />
standard-issue Gill-Man from "Creature from the Black Lagoon" might be labeled<br />
a "Deep One" for the purposes of this Wiki, even though any resemblance is<br />
probably unintentional. Vaguely/generically "Lovecraftian" elements might <br />
include [[Human Cultist]]s, [[Tentacle Monster]]s, ''[[Necronomicon Ex-Mortis]]'',<br />
and the mysterious outer/astral dimension we might call the [[Other Side]]....)<br />

<br />
<!--<br />
(Add any of the following categories that apply to the end of the page; <br />
the first (DEFAULTSORT) is used to sort the film by something other than <br />
a leading The/A/An so that it alphabetizes correctly. A "Short" is <br />
less than an hour long (perhaps an episode of a TV anthology program, music<br />
video, or short-subject amateur film); "Film" is a longer feature-length movie<br />
(longer than an hour), "Series_or_Serial" may include TV programs, serials, <br />
and mini-series; "Franchise" is a series of Films, perhaps including feature-<br />
length Films, Short films, TV Series/Serials/Programs, and other media.)<br />
