A monster is going to town on a small town. Gore galore! Genre actor Jeffery Combs is in fine form. A good, by the numbers monster flick that is sure to please the diehards who watch it. I like this so much I have a poster of it in my room. This is one of the better Lovecraft adaptions. I would compare this to the first Unnamable and Castle Freak.
Viewer Reviews I was extremely dissapointed to see how this movie butchered H.P. Lovecraft's original story. The history of the Martense family is only vaguely touched upon, wherein the original story it was the central theme. The FX wasn't half bad, and the acting was okay. If you can totally seperate this movie from the original story, you'll find it's an average movie.
