Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: TV-Y7 (generally kid-friendly, though perhaps best appreciated by "older kids")
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)
A kid-friendly take on the sort of paranormal investigation tales seen earlier in Night Stalker (1972 franchise), which can serve as a sort of "Lovecraft Lite" to introduce young viewers to basic premises of Lovecraftian pulp horror and the Call of Cthulhu RPG.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
