Great colors and atmosphere. I don't know the movie turn out but this poster is proper for it.

I was looking forward to seeing the Cthulhu movie, up until it was reworked into some Gay Pride Film . Just because Henry Anthony Wilcox (from The Call of Cthulhu) was neurotic and was called "queer" (as in strange) by the elders did not imply that he was homosexual.
Basically, they took Wilcox character from TCOC, made him gay, moved everyone from New England to Seattle (a real no-no as far as a HP Lovecraft story goes), and put him in some hybrid story loosely based on The Shadow over Innsmouth that was really about a gay art student returning to his homophobic cult-following family because his mom died.
I think someone in Hollywood needs to go back and do it right this time.
People want to see the movie for the monster, not the cult.

I was thinking exactly the same y'know? I mean, both The Shadow Over Innsmouth and The Call Of Cthulhu are complex stories, with a type of horror that actually makes you pop out of your sofรก when your reading the books, and Cthulhu didn't managed that, I mean I had no troub on the guy being gay, well, I got a bit uncomfortable when he starts making it out with another guy :ewww: but, I mean, it had no deep ones, no Dagon, no Cthulhu, no shoggoth... WTF?!

I agree as well. I know a script writer has to try his best to make the story workable on film and please the fans of the book. But Lovecraft stories are complex so that the scary parts are delivered with the best impact, not to mention his monsters are STILL unlike any others in past and modern fiction.
