ColoradoCthulhu Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 This week, I watched both "Dagon" (2001) and "Final Prayer" (2013) on Tubi TV for free with commercials. Many of you have probably seen Dagon as it is somewhat famous, but Final Prayer ("The Borderlands" in the UK) is more recent and probably not widely known. Final Prayer is very similar to a Call of Cthulhu scenario, with investigators, research into old journals, hidden secrets, rituals, a village cult, and so on. Watch them both on Tubi TV before they leave soon. Dagon (2001) Final Prayer (2013) Tubi TV has quite an extensive selection of both newer and older horror movies which can be used to write CoC scenarios. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoCthulhu Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 I searched a bit for more Lovecraft-inspired movies on Tubi TV and found these two as well: "The Unnamable" (1988) and "Lurking Fear" (1994). The Unnamable (1988) Lurking Fear (1994) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Tubi TV is not available in the EU (since 2018), but works on a VPN. You'll need to make sure your adblocker doesn't run on the domain too. Don't forget H.P. Lovecraft's The Evil Clergyman is on their too! at 30 mins long, its still to long 🙂 1 Quote ----- Search the Glorantha Resource Site: https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com.

EricW Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I love In the Mouth of Madness - it answers the question we've all asked at some point, what happens to the world if someone creates a pulp fiction mass market appeal version of the Necronomicon. Dreams in the Witch House is a good adaption. I like "The Screwfly Solution". While not strictly a Lovecraftian story, it has a significant horror theme, about a plot to end mankind so subtle yet brutal only a handful of people realise there is an intelligent agency behind the growing catastrophe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoCthulhu Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 The two season Masters of Horror series on Tubi TV has two very Lovecraftian episodes: "H. P. Lovecraft's Dreams in the Witch-House" and "Cigarette Burns." Ezra Godden from "Dagon" is Walter Gilman in the Witch-House episode. Cigarette Burns is directed by John Carpenter and is probably the best episode of the series, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, I'm going to (hopefully, if I get time) watch Dagon for the first time:) Never heard of Tubi TV before... 1 Quote -Voice of the Legion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Forgot Crouch End - Stephen King's mythos version of happens if you end up in the wrong part of London. And how could I forget Granma, Stephen King's story about what happens when a little boy is left alone in the house with an aged relative who read too many of the wrong books. Can't find the link right now, but its out there somewhere. Edited July 13, 2020 by EricW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoCthulhu Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 Another Lovecraftian movie that leaves Tubi TV at the end of this month. Watch it before it's gone! H.P. Lovecraft: Two Left Arms Tubi TV is a great streaming service; I've found Lovecraft-inspired movies on the platform that I've never heard of before.

Mankcam Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) Not exactly Lovecraftian, but some of the classic Brit Horror is certainly tropey enough to be retrapped for a Mythos plot Edited August 1, 2020 by Mankcam Quote " Sure it's fun, but it is also well known that a D20 roll and an AC is no match against a hefty swing of a D100% and a D20 Hit Location Table!"

Stormkhan Cogg of Pavis Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) While I've always known of and seen "Dagon" on You Tube, and I have a DVD of "Horror Express" (not Lovcraftian as such but definitely a 'watcher'), I'm thankful for the heads-up for "The Lurking Fear". I didn't know it had been made - and I aint seen it yet - but this is one of my favourite Lovcraftian/CoC 'game' stories. I'll tell you if I'm grateful for the film after I've watched it!

ColoradoCthulhu Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 "Horror Express" was one of my favorite "B" horror movies as a kid. Heavily influenced by the Mythos, if not exactly Lovecraftian, in its themes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
