H.P. Lovecraft's Witch House

Usually I reserve one star reviews to things so bad as to be funny. I wanted to rate this 0 stars, though, as in bad as to not be worth being called a film.

Why do they use Lovecraft stories in idiotic student quality movies? Because they are out of copyright. And therefore morally, creatively and financially bankrupt people attach their filth to Lovecraft's name simply because they can.

You can see how Lovecraftian this story is when I tell you the protagonist is a bisexual physics student moving in the attic of a house because some guy was stalking her. She moves around in her underwear, she has sex with a girl in the house, the starts dreaming of dark rituals, there is even a kind of tentacle rape scene in it. The only thing remotely Lovecraft is the rats, which in his works would have inspired loathing and disgust, but in this movie they are just really cute.

The sound is atrocious, the acting really bad, the plot nonsensical, there is no horror (except the gory desecration of Lovecraft's name), the editing is stupid and there is no directing to speak of.

Bottom line: I think the guy just wanted to have sex with young actresses. Avoid this like the plague.

If you want to waste some time then I guess you could watch this.

Rated 2 only because of obligatory sex scene, could have contained more nudity to make it worth the watch but it starts out like a bad p0rn0 anyway the acting is that tinny.

I've managed to watch just over half and it's a task to try and finish the film.

I've seen TV series do better interpretations of H. P. Lovecraft, Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet Of Curiosities is a million percent better than this shambles

This could have been an awesome film if only the budget was not so low and the lighting for some reason is so dark its hard to make out what's happening, maybe that's a bonus.

Another "Adaption" of a H. P. Lovecraft short story, and once again the writers have no real idea what the story is about and therefore create a new story an attribute it to Lovecraft to get an audience.

They take a few salient points (student, math, other dimensions, stolen children) and write a story.

This story has a female lead. She is working on the principle that right mathematics and geometry can create a portal to other detentions. Because an ex is seeking to get her, her professor sends her to a remote house for her safety. This of coarse puts her right in the sights of an occult group seeking to resurrect a long dead witch.

The reminder of the film is a collection of events to bring this about.

Save your tine and read the original H. P. Lovecraft.

The only award this movie should have received, is The Worst Movie of All Time Award. I am so sorry I wasted 1.5 hours watching this. Rented it on Amazon Prime and it is available for another 47 hours....yay!

This film actually won awards? Wow, I am lost for words here. Ok, let's move on. This adaptation is an insult to Lovecraft's story. (9 awards? Really?) Of course, let us use some female sexuality in here: naked, sultry, sexy, it will surely interest some people. They could have worked on the acting instead but no, sex sells. (There must be a typo with the 9 awards won.) What is happening with films in this day and age? So much rubbish, no originality and films winning awards. It must have been a family and friends award night.
