"Now this may sound like an overreaction, but believe me when I say that it’s outright CRIMINAL I hadn’t heard anything about this movie anywhere else other than from the creators. Is there a reason for that? Did I wrong you in some way? Were y’all purposely keeping this from me for some reason beyond my comprehension? Or was keeping me in the dark part of some sick pleasure you’ve been enjoying at my expense? Let’s break some basics before we get back on track—Shadow People..."

Delicate Arch sends four college students out into the desert for a bonkers Lovecraftian meta commentary on watching horror movies.
"It’s the kind of Lovecraftian mindf*ck I can’t get enough of, and it bounces from subgenre to subgenre in a way that feels totally natural. It’s almost like writer/director Matt Warren took Benson and Moorhead’s Resolution and The Endless and transposed them into a more classically horrific key, so if you’re a fan of that filmmaking duo’s trademark Lovecraftian style, I think you’re really going to like Delicate Arch..."

"Cosmic horror can be minds and dimensions beyond human ken - Cthulhu's incomprehensible moral guidance or whole ecologies swirling around us unseen. Or Azathoth, “mindless” because what it has instead is so vast and all-encompassing as to make mind-ness irrelevant. But cosmic horror can also be implacably simple - hunger, say, combined with being further up the food chain than we apex omnivores would like to believe possible. Maybe much further..."

"Beach vacations sound like nothing but fun in the sun unless one has seen Jeffery A. Brown’s directorial debut, The Beach House. What starts as an uncomfortable, accidental couple’s weekend in a nearly abandoned seaside town ends in a cosmic horror nightmare that would impress H.P. Lovecraft himself. Liana Liberato stars as Emily, a college senior giving her relationship with Randall (Noah Le Gros) one last chance. Their romantic getaway crashes the older couple, Mitch (Jake Weber) and Jane’s (Maryann Nagel), own stay at the same house.

The Dæmon from directing team Matt Devino and David Michael Yohe screens at this year's Pigeon Shrine FrightFest.
"The literature of author H. P. Lovecraft has inspired wave after wave of horror directors. From all out body horror such as Joe Lynch’s Suitable Flesh, to more subtle affairs like the works of Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson, the Cthulhu loving writer’s work has been adapted, interpreted, and used as a sounding board for years. Lovecraft’s popularity shows no signs of waning, with Matt Devino and David Michael Yohe’s The Dæmon the latest film to utilise the late author’s work as a starting point..."

A major plot point in Alien: Romulus is how a hyper-intelligent, purpose-driven android chooses the survivability of the human race over what it means to be hum
"Ridley Scott’s Alien redefined the sci-fi genre in many ways, through its exploration of cosmic horror, existentialism, ethical dilemmas surrounding AI, and more. Romulus is an echo of all these tried and tested thematic discussions. However, the film does it diligently and with an earnest respect for the genre that you almost forgive its shortcomings..."

"... I'm going to take a quick look at a Lovecraft work slightly off the trail of cosmic horror: The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. Like Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, I consider 'Dream-Quest' to be a flawed, but imaginatively powerful, novella/short novel of fantasy adventure with elements of cosmic horror.

"Authors Edward Lee and Mary SanGiovanni tap into the Otherworld where cobblestone streets, twisted architectural churches and the Old Gods exist.

- “The dread contemplation of infinity”: Some Thoughts on George M. Gould and Cosmic Horror Before Lovecraftpstdarkness.com “The dread contemplation of infinity”: Some Thoughts on George M. Gould and Cosmic Horror Before Lovecraft
This post is based on the conference paper I delivered as part of the Henry Armitage Symposium, the academic track of NecronomiCon, held in Providence, RI, from August 15-18, 2024. Abstract (TLDR!)…
"In order to better understand the extent and importance of Lovecraft’s conception of “cosmic horror,” we need to recognize it as a transvaluation of a term already widely circulating in the first thirty years of Lovecraft’s life. During this era, the term “cosmic horror” derived primarily from the (at the time, highly influential) writings of American physician, ophthalmologist and medical lexicographer, George Milbry Gould. This short essay builds on one small part of the larger argument of “The Birth of Cosmic Horror from the S(ub)lime of Lucretius,” included in the essay collection New Directions in Supernatural Horror Literature, published by Palgrave in 2018 (if you’re looking for a peer-reviewed and properly citational version of the basic argument, use that.) I develop these connections further and more formally in my in-progress book, which offers a literary-historical genealogy of cosmic horror..."

The New Cosmic Horror: A Genre Molded by Tabletop Roleplaying Games and Postmodern Horror
> The beginnings of cosmic horror and Lovecraftian fiction stem from the weird genre of the mid-20th century. So too is the modern cosmic horror genre connected to the often-contentious New Weird genre of the 21st century. The delineation of this new genre, the New Weird, appeared after several authors felt certain science fiction stories of the 21st century were of a wholly distinct literary styling from other narratives of the time [1]. Highly debated, New Weird arose from the combination of elements found in two modern science fiction genres. This new genre, individuals claimed, combined the already blurred lines of fantasy and science fiction of slipstream and interstitial science fiction with elements and narratives found in the horror genre. This new genre explored themes and narratives similar to the weird genre of the 1940s, but with a modern viewpoint and mindset. Due to the similarities between the two genres, the authors called the new genre the New Weird [2]. > >New Weird is the result of the constant evolution of genres. While seemingly similar to its predecessor, upon closer inspection New Weird was a wholly different entity than the 1940s weird genre. However, 1940s weird was also a source of numerous sub-genres, so does the same hold true of New Weird? Yes; cosmic horror and Lovecraftian fiction is a staple of modern culture, but similar to New Weird, modern narratives of the genre have a similar appearance yet follow different principles. Modern cosmic horror media, especially tabletop gaming, utilize a different mentality than found in previous works of cosmic horror.

"Chaosium’s new Regency Cthulhu Collection collects everything you need to play Call of Cthulhu in the time of Jane Austen’s England.
Some truths are better left unacknowledged altogether, like the unknowable elder things that lurk in the darkness between the stars or the ways of magic that call upon the dark designs of the elder gods. Through the lens of the Cthulhu Mythos, Regency England, specifically the kind of Jane Austen-type scenarios because that’s what Chaosium’s focus is (and it’s delicious), is full of unspeakable horrors alongside the regular, speakable ones.
Call it Shoggoths and Sensibility, or The Horror that Lurks Beneath Northanger Abbey if you prefer. But now, you too, can explore the weird world of Cthulhu and Regency times!"

> The Laundry Files started with an element of situational comedy juxtaposed on a background of nightmarish horror: the government agency for protecting us from the likes of Cthulhu turns out to be just another secret civil service bureaucracy with forms, committee meetings, and an obsession with secrecy. Into which we inject a narrator who is a brash young hacker-nerd from the late 90s dot-com culture (who has been conscripted willy-nilly into something structured a lot like a very 1950s-ish Len Deighton spy agency, if updated in line with health and safety and HR legislation). “The inappropriate hero” is one of the classic humorous narrative forms because it gives us a sympathetic viewpoint from which to explore the lunacy of a situation, and there’s plenty of humor in any bureaucracy (as the early Dilbert cartoon strips illustrated, before it jumped the shark circa 1998). > >By the eighth book in the Laundry Files, Bob isn’t an outsider anymore; indeed, he’s at the lower end of senior management, representing the agency in public. But there’s still plenty of situational humor to be extracted by watching how a government deals with a whole new bureaucracy it was hitherto unaware it possessed. > >And then, of course, there’s the horror element. Like humor, horror is a tone you can apply to any other genre of fiction. (You can have a horror-spy crossover, or horror on top of SF, or horror on top of historical fiction, or . . .) And I find combining horror and humor particularly useful because the one contrasts with the other to great effect.

- Arkham Horror: The Terror at the End of Time #1 reviewaiptcomics.com Arkham Horror: The Terror at the End of Time #1 review
A solid beginning to the first comic-based addition to the Arkham Horror universe.
"Arkham Horror: The Terror at the End of Time #1 (written by Cullen Bunn, with art by Andrea Mutti and colors by Valerio Alloro) brings the Arkham Horror games and books to life. Set in the Jazz Age of the 1920s, this premier issue introduces us to wealthy socialite Jenny Barnes, who always has a priceless necklace and two pistols as part of her wardrobe, and Private Investigator Joe Diamond, who’s also much more than he seems.
The first half of the book feels like a classic Mickey Spillane mystery, with a wealthy damsel-in-distress desperate to find her missing sister. There’s a scene in a diner where Jenny and Joe have a conversation, gauging each other while not wanting to open up to the other person, and I could easily see this scene playing out in a classic Bogart/Bacall film like The Big Sleep. The dialogue’s as sparse and efficient as a Spillane potboiler, with an added level of menace with mentions of an ancient cult lurking in the background and the overall feeling of dread that looms over the city of Arkham..."
