Wonderfully Fun Gibbering Romp into Silliness

Warning: Spoilers
First off, if you've never heard of H.P. Lovecraft just stop reading now. This film is not your style.

If however you've read (or read of) any of his works or have played D&D more than 3 times in your life then read on.

This movie is crap. It has terrible effects, mediocre acting, a stupid storyline, and poor continuity. It is also FREAKING HILARIOUS. I laughed myself silly watching this.

The entire film feels like a bunch of friends got together at a party, and after several rounds of drinks said "Hey! Let's make a movie!" -and then went out and made it.

SPOILER ALERT: The wonderful thing about this is that you, the viewer, feel like you were along for the ride. You were there in the back yard with your buddies helping with the pool noodles and monster mask. You shot the animation and comic book sequences. You were the one shaking the the tents at the beach and the RV in the desert.

What makes this movie special is that even though it is crap you can't help but love it. You feel emotionally invested in it, and that is a very rare an magical thing.

I will be buying the DVD as soon as possible.
