Cthuhlu. 2007.
A young man travels back to his home town in Astoria to execute his mother's estate and uncovers a sinister cult involving his family.
H.P. Lovecraft had a strange dream once and was able to write things down into a story and called it Cthuhlu, we have a gay man balancing his sexuality, meeting up with old friends while his loved ones seem to be happy he is home then flicking on a switch and turning against him. I have watched this a few times and still get confused by it, part of it seems to follow Cult Of Cthuhlu while near exploring Lovecraft's other story Dagon. The plot does appear to be a very bad dream sequence throughout, his dad cannot pronounce the name properly which is comical and a insult, the acting at times appears wooden, Tori Spelling does her usual OTT acting and we actually have some decent cinematography. This is more of a bleak dark atmospheric chiller rather than a horror with no monsters and very mild blood and gore flick.
