A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:

S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)

This franchise appears to mainly be linked to Lovecraft by way of gigantic "tentacle monsters" and an apocalyptic tone.

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