Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: (unrated) (perhaps equivalent to a G or PG for mostly off-screen 1970s TV-friendly Violence)
Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; could be a very loose adaptation)
Cursed pagan altar stones, ancient ghosts, demonic voices, killer frozen slime, and William Shatner getting sucked out of an airplane? That's worth at least two tentacles, right?
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
