So this summer I finally read me some Lovecraft.

I have to say, I was deeply impressed, for a man who shows nothing and implies everything, his stuff was still all too capable of keeping me up at night. Eli Roth & co. ought to read some of this, it might improve their work.

That said, it amazed me how many crappy Syfy original pictures are taken from "At the Mountains of Madness." The story is brilliant, but there is something about Lovecraft's tone that really has not been translated all that well to film.

Thanks to those Loungers who got me interested, it's been a while since I read something that engrossing.
