Is This Something?
Nicholas Cage in an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's short story "The Color Out of Space"?
Huh. It's from the producers of a horror/revenge movie called Mandy which I've never seen but Jay from Red Letter Media said is good.Comments

It does look interesting, but I never liked the story. Lovecraft, on the other hand, felt it was one of his best.
And while I love The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, HPL didn't care much for it.

The thing about Lovecraft is most of his horror is based on the readers imagination. That worked in Alien not sure a Nic Cage flick can pull that off.

"Colour Out of Space" is essentially like that "Creepshow" segment with Stphen King as the goofy bumpkin who gets mold from a meteorite growing all over him.
King pretty clearly stole the idea from HPL.
The meteor carries some kind of indescribable color with it that slowly begins to contaminate everything in the main character's farm. IIRC it kills his wife and at the end of the story the guy has made his peace with the idea that the color will take over everything. And he presumably dies.
Like most HPL stories it's a slow reveal of something horrible that can't really be described or explained, only alluded to.
It's grimly effective as it is.
But, this is Hollywood and they're going to jazz it up a bit. With some creativity this could be pretty great.

The man doesn't seem to turn down roles, however weird. And he gives every role his all - whatever level that may be. I think Cage misses more than he hits, but he also takes some risks that a lot of mainstream stars wouldn't. Little picture? Sure. Weird AF picture? Sure, let's do it. Blockbuster? You got it.
And he does bring a certain ... bizareness to his performances. Like the alphabet scene from Vampire's Kiss - one of the weirdest things in a big movie:

Plus they know they're going to lose, so might as well blame it on an old white, too conservative, old style Democrat male. Saves face. And if he happens by some crazy ridiculous change win, they can step him down gracefully (ahem) and make his idiot VP, who no one voted for, the president.
Think about it. Trump destroying any known Socialist on the world stage would be a major embarrassment and setback for the commie dream. Democrats have zero intention of publicly arguing the merits of Socialism with Trump because he will turn it into a flaming corpse and then piss on it like a dossier Russian hooker.

What you are suggesting is not a typical donor photo with a lot of friends and other party goers in attendance. I am skeptical since politicians always work these photos, even candid shots out, in advance given what they do for their living, and I haven't seen this photo in the collection going around the internet today - which I can guarantee you are standard donor photos. But I will keep an open mind if I see it.

Agreed. They've done it (meaning "The Dunwich Horror") twice, both times with bizarre and not helpful departures from the actual story. The second one was much, much worse. The odd thing is that Dean Stockwell was in both. If they want to do it a third time (and hopefully get it right), and include Dean again (this time he could be Old Man Whateley -- it could work!) , they'd better hurry.
The other Lovecraft story I'd like to see done (provided 'twere done well) would be "The Call of Cthulhu".

Posted by: rhomboid at January 20, 2020 08:39 PM (El6T/)
There is an argument that the lemons in Southern Italy are just different and we can't replicate their limoncello. There is also an argument that the stuff they send us is crap and not even close to the real thing.
We are not going to change our latitude and longitude so you do the best you can with what you have. There is an American limconcello called Fabrizio that i think is pretty damn good. "It is also cheaper than the Italian stuff.
'For sure the best was had at local stands in Southern Italy. The lemons there are different, that is a fact. But also it tastes better because you are traveling around Southern Italy and at your happiest point. Same with Gelato. Sure it was better in Italy. You were traveling and having a blast.
And they have crap gelato in Italy too. Like anywhere, you have to seek out the good stuff, and it is rare.

If you're going to a desert island, don't take along any HPL. After a while, the coconuts will seem to contain strange angles, the sand will have an eerie hue, and then...that giant tentacled thing will jump out of the water and drag you off to its cyclopean lair. Always disconcerting, if not positively annoying.
My advice, if you're going to a desert island, is to take along MaryAnn and Ginger. Much more fun.

most of the commercial stuff rings in at 25-30 percent. That rings true to me from drinking it in Italy from road side stands with no labels. It is not supposed to be a hard liquor but more of a liquer

Stockwell was definitely an odd choice as Wilbur, and (if I remember correctly) he was equally odd as Armitage in the version set in Louisiana, but as the aging out-of-his-depth sorcerer he would have a chance to redeem himself.
I am going to watch that Call of Cthulhu that you linked to. It's a good story, and I'm not a big stickler for special effects (or even sound). If I liked a story, faithfulness to the story line is more important.

Yeah, I saw that. Actually quite atmospheric and interesting.
There was another Lovecraftian movie--I forgot what it was. But it had a nice historic build-up, so keenly Lovecraftian. It was weird though, because after some decent writing and performances through the first 2/3s of the movie it falls apart at the third act and becomes complete schlock. Unfortunately, I saw it in two sittings. I stopped it about 2/3rds of the way through. When I rejoined it, there was about 3-5 minutes of the same quality that I had been enjoying. And then WTH is this?!

Yup. Somewhat of a bigot and died because he couldn't live other than the East coast. If he had moved to a more arid place, he might have been able to live a few more years.
This was even amply suggested to him by his friends, but preferred to remain in Providence.
Also he was offered an editor job where he could actually start making some money--and some decisions on the direction of weird fiction--but, no...Providence.

Yup. He battled with his health all his life, and his relative poverty a good part of his adult life, but couldn't move somewhere better for his health and wouldn't take a job that would start him earning.
I believe he sponged off his sister most of his life. That and he came from wealth.
They say that his health, his family's history of dementia and the decline of their once great fortunes is what drove his emphasis on a sort of "stately" decay.

NLurker - I use 50% (100-proof), for no reason other than that was the

Sara Carter reporting that Durham has expanded his investigation to include the Office of Net Assessment at the Pentagon.

Just now expanding. Well, I guess that's better than not investigating at all.
But seriously, what the hell would that Office have to do with anything?

They're gonna need a bigger boat.
Personally aware of wild and woolly s**t funded by Office of Net Assessment, back in the day.
However it always was - get this - directed at serving our national security, and getting/keeping a leg up on the damn russkis.
The (actual) whistleblower story from that chapter of the Mega-Scandal alone - when contrasted with the absurd artificial and almost certainly unlawful fake whistleblower nonsense involving Ukraine, is enough to make any sane/informed person's blood boil.

>>But seriously, what the hell would that Office have to do with anything?
No. Expanded it last year and reporting it now. Shockingly, Trump's DOJ doesn't leak like Obama's did.
That office has always been at the heart of the Russia scam and the framing of General Mike Flynn.

Some of his prose poems are astounding. For atmosphere, I just like Nyarlathotep and the Evil Clergyman.
But I'd say for a full-blown story, I'm rather partial to At the Mountains of Madness.

About time those dummies in HW make his works into film.
From Beyond was a crazy favorite of mine in the 80s. The dread and hidden horrors unleashed by the resonator. Loved how ridiculous it was. This trailer looked pretty interesting.

The Dunwich Horror is great. Very few stories can top the creep factor of Pickman's Model. But I'm also attached to At the Mountains of Madness and the Case of Charles Dexter Ward. (Great B-movie called "The Resurrected" covers this one with a screen-chewing Chris Sarandon as Ward)

I can't take her for more than about 30 seconds at a time.
Honestly, I don't know how you can stand watching that , that, that, whatever.
Long ago, I would just laugh at her for being a freak.
The lying and propaganda didn't bother me much.
But now, her schtick just isn't amusing any more. It is just PROGressive propaganDA.

I went back in the water when Trump was elected. The sharks are swimming around eating each other now. I'm mainly observing their conspiracy-building and hope to be able to hang in until someone, somewhere, is led away in handcuffs.

Beginning tomorrow those of us in the upper chamber face a daunting task as we start to sift through the evidence and hear witnesses and perform what is quite possibly our most important job-short of voting to declare war.
I have not yet made up my mind and as we begin proceedings, polls show that a clear majority of Americans believe the President has committed serious crimes and should be removed from office. While I don't doubt this, I would like to assure the President that I have not yet come to any conclusions of his guilt or innocence and won't begin my personal deliberations until I hear ALL the evidence.

i love the part when fleeing the shoggoth where the fellow who looks back starts panting out subway station names as he runs because presumably the monster racing down the tunnel is about that size and speed.
