Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: (not rated) (perhaps equivalent to a TV-14 for Violence, and mild Profanity and Adult Content)
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)
Apparently only "Lovecraftian" in that it's about a group of investigators with eclectic skill sets (a defrocked priest, nurse, computer/electronics wiz kid and a young medium) who solve religious-themed monster-of-the-week mysteries relating to a demonic conspiracy.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
