It's funny that AlexB mentions "The descent", because there's an eraly Lovecraft short story that has a passing resemblance to that movie. It's about a tourist that gets lost while doing a tour in a cave and eventually thinks he's being stalked.

I think "The Rats in the Walls" would make a great short film. I don't know what they'd do about the cat, though...

Oh, has anyone seen the movie NECRONOMICON (which is supposed to be based on three of Lovecraft's stories)? Honestly, I liked the wraparound story and the first one (which uses the main character from "The Rats in the Walls", but not the story), but the second one (based on "Cool Air") was kind of blah and the third one (I forgot what it's based on) , I thought, was awful.

"From Beyond" as a low-budget atmospheric thriller?

From Beyond was actually done as a low-budget horror flick starring Barbara Cranston.  I've certainly seen worse efforts to adapt Lovecraft (like The Unnameable -- ick).

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
