given his propensity to turn shit into Cronenbergs, he'll have ample opportunity in Dunwich, and regarding family dynamic... well shit, now we're dealing with the most deranged families in New England! We're probably in good hands.BIL wrote:I think he might do really well with Dunwich, given the relatively foolproof "scientists v alien" premise. Some of Color's effects undeniably recall John Carpenter's The Thing, but its handling of an innately more harrowing family dynamic didn't 100% grab me.
I think he should stay well away from the larger bodies of work: The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath, The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, The Shadow Out of Time, etc
I'm hoping all this demonstrates to production companies that we are interested in HPL films, and Guillermo del Toro's pursuit to get funding for a Mountains of Madness adaptation is reignited. Why not SpectreVision? They're behind Stanley's trilogy.
I'm watching The Whisperer in Darkness tonight.
