Did geekin ever release?

Really like this short!

Excellent video many thanks

What's with the "you fool, Warren is dead"? Does it have some hidden meaning?

I’m glad someone else had the exact same thought as me when I heard this for the first time 😂

Other than the disappointing looking swamp/grave yard, the rest of it was pretty good.

very good

I get that it's a super low-budget fan-film. But given the bad screenplay, poor acting, terrible production value (shoddy sound, lighting, & camera-work) and sophomoric editing, this is the single worst Lovecraft adaptation ever. I love the amazing works of HPL & the plethora of media it spawned, but this short is, in a word, horrible. Avoid.

Warren was killed by the gods of tidiness because his desk was an OCD nightmare.

I always enjoy seeing Lovecraft interpretatios.

It's funny that warren is played by a black man which would have Lovecraft rolling in his grave figuratively speaking. I like the choice even if it wasn't on purpose kind of a slap in the face to his racism. Some people love Lovecraft and ignore his being an overt racist others wont read a thing because of his racism. Me I don't like everything he wrote and really like others but if he was alive today I could care less to be in the same room with him

Next time, please direct your actors in a manner so as to have them behave -- act, even -- in a believable fashion. Thank you.

Yo how da fuck do you "turn up missing"?!!!

Let this be a lesson to you'll never enter a unknown tomb or else.

I am just high enough to think this is awesome!

I have watched several adaptations of this story and of them all this versions seems as if Randolph murdered him... Did not feel the slightest interference of the supernatural...Unless that was the filmmakers' intent?...The gentle soul who finally does in the overbearing one-and blame the disappearance on the supernatural?....

ha! nice4 mashup!! RTJ + Vader + DJ Shadow = outtasite!

'Been searching for a good Lovecraft short movie on the Tube, and for me it's the 1st one I've found with real Lovecraftian feel. And that includes the nothing really happens end ( which I've found at least in some of his stories). I really liked also the way they play convincingly in that high American English, though it has quite a modern feel about the scenery chosen here by the film makers. Quite Shakespearean!

JUST WENT AND READ THE STORY AGAIN AND I GUESS I OWE AN APOLOGY TO THE SCRIPTWRITERS. THE STORY ITSELF IS WELL BELOW LOVECRAFT LATER STANDARDS(PUBLISHED 1920) AND LACKS ALMOST ENTIRELY THE SPECIAL SINISTER AND MENACING ATMOSPHERE SO TYPICAL TO HIS WORKS.

SORRY TO GO AGAINST THE POPULAR VOTE HERE BUT THIS IS JUST PLAIN BAD. I SPEAK AS AN ARDENT LOVECRAFTIAN AND THAT GIVES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. NO THRILL, NO INTEREST AND PRETTY LOUSY ACTING.

Why is it that suspenders are a symbol of authority ?

Very nice. I am very impressed. IMO, this shows what can be done with a decent script, a decent behind the scenes camera crew and minimal special effects-budget-bullshit. I think for what it was shooting for, this hit the mark. Nicely done.

I didn't get any of this, it might have been too long since I've read the story, but the acting was really bad just as I like it.

@sirotti1981 - This story takes place in Florida, not New England. In another couple of stories Warren is described as coming from South Carolina. It's definitely plausible he could be black, although the real Sam Loveman was a white, Jewish guy.

Thank you. Good job.

Very nicely done. I'm a lifelong Lovecraftian, and enjoyed every minute of it!

he's dead, Jim.

i wonder if superpowered carter ever when back to revenge his friend.

character playing carter is so gaayyyy...too wack...he sounds like hes wining every time he speaks

I like this, but there's a lot of unnecessary material that was not from the source material, the camera moves too much, and the acting is a little off.

Yet he can't beat a metal man who does Shakespeare in the park.

The daddy screaming DID need a little work, though, sorry.

Very nice. The background noise when he went outside was interesting. Was he hearing the sunlight, or just the wind and such more acutely?

I agree that Warren should be white. Not out of Lovecraft's racism: it's just that around 1920 there surely never was a black professor in New England

nice ending

@TheDetroitAndy as a lovecraft fan i generally get more dissapointed when the acting or atmosphere dont suit lovecraft than little changes like the way a character looks. its impossible for a director to create exactly what one imagines from one of his stories cause each person will imagine it in a different way

and thats literal

i like the "warren is dead" voice. it sounds like the kind of voice for which lovecraft would need a paragraph for its description XDDD

@lordsakkura hahahhahahahXDDD true true......

This story left me with what the hell was down there istead of being scared.

@lordsakkura PTSD, or the begining stages

why is warren being so forcefull in the beging he doesent even want randolph to come with him at first

I love the picture of Lovecraft in the background of the office! :D

Im going with voltron. he is more than 100 times any cats size. he is a heroic figure just like them. and his foot alone could crush most of them. mabye lion o could hold his foot up for a bit since i dont know too much about him but voltrons even bigger than their base (i think).

God; it's been almost 6 years since we worked on that movie.

@zomglolretahoy True, a movie is never better than the book!

I don't know, I don't really like it. The actors don't seem very good to me, there is no real tension except of the final scene and Randolph Carter isn't a THAT nervous character. Although I have to say that I like the very end. Maybe I would have liked it even more if Carter would have become crazy over this sentence (although he doesn't do that in the original story). However, I prefer the written story.

@ genericmeatunit: Lovecraft was a racist, so he definetely didn't have a black guy in mind when he invented the character Harley Warren. Especially because this story is based on a dream Lovecraft had, where he saw him and his friend Loveman in a very simular situation as described in the story. Lovecraft became Carter and Loveman Warren. And Loveman was a white man, so I assume that Warren is that, too.

amazing!

Fun stuff :D
