==Ratings==
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===

* Rated: (not rated) (I would expect Violence, Profanity, Nudity, Adult Content)

===Tentacle Ratings===
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
* SSs__ (Two and a half Tentacles: sort of Lovecraftian)

I've not yet seen this film. The premise of a party of investigators seeking a translation to the ''Necronomicon'' to stop a cult of witches seems "Lovecraftian" enough on paper, but the film trailer looks a bit less so in action than perhaps I'd ideally like: from the trailer, it looks like it might be more of an action/adventure film than a cosmic horror film. Still, the trailer has got just enough of that ''Evil Dead''/''Army of Darkness'' feeling to it that it might still work on this level.

''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''
