We’re all huge Lovecraft fans here at Dread Central, so we’re getting super-hyped for the 7th annual H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival, which will be taking place in San Pedro, California, from April 29th to May 1st at the Warner Grand Theatre. I could not be more jealous of those who will be attending.
They’re running a Kickstarter campaign to make the event as good as it can be, so head over there now and contribute to help honor the legacy of a great man who never got the respect that he deserved during his lifetime.
Synopsis
The H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival® & CthulhuCon™-San Pedro returns for the seventh year at the exquisite art deco Warner Grand Theatre in historic San Pedro on April 29th, 30th, and May 1st. Join us for three days of movies, music, games, art, authors, vendors, and so much more!
We’re going big this year (much like ol’ Wilbur Whateley himself) and attempting all new, original programming in addition to some of the finest Lovecraftian films the world has to offer. But crafting such a unique experience takes some effort, so please excuse the mess and mind the gaps as we set this event up. We will present key info as soon as we can, but know that it will be just as spectacularly tentacular this year as it has in the past (even better!)
Programming:
This year we are proud to present:
Sean Patrick O’Reilly, writer/director of the upcoming animated feature film Howard Lovecraft & the Frozen Kingdom, will show a segment of the movie and talk about bringing his company Arcana’s graphic novel to the silver screen!
THE MIST (2007) ** in Black & White **
As many of you know director Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption) wished he could have released this Stephen King adaptation in black & white. He did so on the DVD release. Now see this Lovecraft inspired chiller on the big screen as Darabont intended!
THE DUNWICH HORROR (1970) ** with all new, maddening musical and twisted theatrical pieces by members of Witch Mountain!!** LIVE! LIVE!! LIVE!!!!
