Ratings
MPAA Ratings
- Rated: (not rated) (perhaps equivalent to a PG-13 for 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)
DAR in the YSDC forums: "fails on the 'explicit Lovecraftian element' but which has enough of the right tacit elements (ancient civilizations, aliens, monsters, a Chinese 'Delta Green', etc) that I think some or most people would be ok with saying it's would fit somewhere on the scale."
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
