* Unfilmable, ([http://unfilmable.blogspot.com/2011/12/shadow-of-unnamable-2011.html link]) - "...A perfect combination of behind-the-camera professionalism and reverence for the source material, it is no wonder this short recently won Best Short Lovecraft Adaptation at the 2011 H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival."

==Synopsis==

New England in the late 1920s: The two friends Randolph Carter and Joel Manton spend a sunny autumn afternoon on an old, far-off 17th century cemetery. An argument arises, concerning the horror stories written by Carter. Especially one story draws Manton`s sarcasm. It´s centered around a creature so horrifying, that it cannot be named or described: the Unnamable... Manton, as a schoolteacher and firm believer in science, can´t imagine anything could be truly unnamable. Encouraged by the atmosphere of the old burial ground Carter tells his friend about the origin of that novel. He claims it to be based on a more than 200 years old local legend. A legend about a strange old man, who was rumored to have a terrible creature locked up in his attic. Manton listens with increasing fascination, as darkness descends on the cemetery. And suddenly they become part of the legend as well…
