A real Italian digital movie

"Road to L." is surely one of most original, interesting and fresh Italian movies made in last ten years. I saw it in night time, excellent collocation for this kind of movie. This is a mockumentary, a false making-of of a real documentary about an hypothetical Italian trip of H.P. Lovecraft. I scared. The Federico Greco and Roberto Leggio's movie has just some debits with "The Blair Witch Project" (the end is a declared tribute) and is a product which shows an aspect of Italian popular culture unknown. This has been the first real digital movie made in Italy specifically for the digital playing (home video, computer, digital cinemas).

Lovecraft's not dead!

Who said Lovecraft is dead? Everyone who understands a bit the fascination about Lovecraft and his literature MUST see this film. It is just like his spirit lives in it. I did not know that Lovecraft had made vacations, this was fascinating. And still do not know if I can trust the end, but it doesn't matter. Thank to these guys who shot this documentary. I don't know if anyone before had used Lovecraft as it's main subject in a film. Just like in his books you Find yourself after a while being part of an endless nightmare that at some point began and would maybe never end. I just saw on a festival, hopefully it will be shown in regular cinema.

An original thriller, finally!

How difficult is to find an original thriller nowadays. As a matter of fact almost every thriller movie I saw was a copy, of a copy, of a copy of another thriller movie. But this time it's different, this time I can say that Il mistero di Lovecraft is just unique in his script, in his mood, in the way that is directed (maybe because sometimes two directors work better than one, just watch the Matrix trilogy!). I can say that the magic atmosphere of the Lovecraft's terrific books (if u know what i mean) lives in this movie. I saw it on a festival but i absolutely wanna see it again so i hope it will be shown in regular cinema too.

Enthusiastic and courageous

I have just read a comic about this film (is that normal that people do comics for a film? Isn't it the other way normally?) and watched the faked documentary at Pesaro festival. It was quite a bit a hadn't seen anything like that. In the tradition of "Blairwitch Project" you see a documentary that is at least in it's main theme, the mysterious happenings in the Po Delta, a fake. But you also knew that in Blairwitch. Once you accept this you enter a film full of atmosphere and passion for the stories and the spirit of the greatest author of horror stories that ever existed. In the end the focus goes from the research more to the tensions in the documentary team, caused by all these strange and frightening things they explored. A wonderful idea and a great movie.
