Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: (not rated) (perhaps PG-13 for Profanity and mild Violence)
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)
Not exactly a "Lovecraftian" film in the sense of being based on any of Lovecraft's work or containing references to his creations, though some viewers may find the location and atmosphere suggestive of Lovecraft's work (an "Eldritch Location" film). Unlike many examples of this sort of film, Coherence, at least, shows clear signs that the writers have an actual story to tell, rather than a collection of weird, mind-screwy, symbolic stuff going on.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
