Most of H.P. Lovecraft's best works with something that is maybe a little odd, becomes decidedly strange, and then slowly descends into madness.
That pretty much described my reaction to seeing that 1) there was a film supposed to be released this year called Cthulu, based on Lovecraft's "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" (though the screenwriter seems to be suggesting in this interview that gay people are more aware of the horrors of small-town life than us straights, which seems somewhat myopic), 2) it had Tori Spelling in it.
