List of Lovecraftian Horror Movies Part 4

films and television shows with Lovecraftian references and themes

This list of Lovecraftian movies is so exhaustive I've had to split it into four parts as follows:

1 - those that are direct adaptations of H. P. Lovecraft's fictional works ... HERE.

2 - those that are inspired by the fiction of Lovecraft, incorporating elements of his Cthulhu Mythos or other aspects of his fiction, and that could feasibly be set within the same fictional world or universe ... HERE.

3 - those that are influenced by the fiction of Lovecraft, making reference to Lovecraft or his Yog-Sothothery, but that aren't feasibly set directly within his fictional universe ... HERE.

4 - and finaly a list of documentaries about either the man himself or his wider legacy ... these are HERE on this page below.

The term Lovecraftian Horror is often used when describing a wider sub-genre of horror better termed Cosmic Horror, that emphasizes puny humanity's helplessness in the face of an unknown (or unknowable) malevolence (or indifference) at a cosmic (or universal) level. Much of Lovecraft's fiction falls into this wider sub-genre and he was very much among it's pioneers. This sub-genre will be explored in our Cosmic Horror section HERE soon. Some of Lovecraft's fiction also falls under the umbrella of the wider Body Horror sub-genre which can soon be explored HERE.
