H. P. Lovecraft's the Old Ones (2024). 1h 24m

“HP Lovecraft is hard work and The Old Ones has a pretty impossible to film concept anyway, but this movie is too low budget and poorly made to hold an audience.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe basic idea of ancient beings possessing humans for centuries and one escaping into the modern world hoping to destroy them could have been entertaining, but sadly this independent film doesnu0026#39;t have the scope or budget or acting talent or script to make it work.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eToo much of the dialogue is spoken in demon possessed tones that you cannot understand what is being said, and the filming locations are junkyards, swamps and wastelands that donu0026#39;t fit the action or situation at all.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI tried very hard to stay the course but gave up after about 50 minutes as too many scenes dragged on where the demonic humans chasing the main character spoke reams of dialogue in their devil voices, and simply made no sense.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFar too ambitious a source material to be tackled on the cheap like this. It looks laughable when it ought to be impressive and is rather a bore as well.”
