Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: not rated (equivalent to a PG-13 or R for Violence, Profanity, Adult Content, etc.)
Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; vaguely similar in tone, could be a very loose adaptation)
I've not seen this, but would expect the apocalyptic millenarianism combined with the subterranean monster and hillbilly cult to be at least vaguely Lovecraftian.
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
