Trailer Debut: The Last Lovecraft: The Relic of Cthulhu
Of all the films playing at this year's Slamdance, one of the ones we're most excited for is Henry Saine's horror comedy The Last Lovecraft: The Relic of Cthulhu. Why? Because it looks nothing short of badass! Check out the trailer and judge for yourselves!
The film will be playing the Slamdance Film Festival on Sunday, January 24 at 12:30pm with an encore Tuesday, January 26 at 5:30pm.
Synopsis
"Jeff, a down on his luck office worker, finds out he is the last living relative of horror novelist H.P. Lovecraft. What he doesn't know is that Lovecraft's monsters are real and will soon threaten the very existence of mankind. Jeff and his best friend Charlie are forced to embark on a perilous adventure and they enlist the help of high school acquaintance, Paul, a self proclaimed Lovecraft specialist. Together the three unlikely heroes must protect an alien relic and prevent the release of an ancient evil, known as Cthulhu."

NEXT STORY
Writer / producer Jim Ousley dropped us a line today to let us know about a new horror movie he has gearing up for production in St. Louis. While we get hundreds of e-mails a day to let us know about new projects, the premise of this one is so wacky that we just had to share! Are you ready to become part of The Bloodfest Club?









I guess I'm in the minority for thinking this looks pretty fun. :oD

At what point did Lovecraft become comedy fodder? Really?
