I borrow too much to even touch their status. I wish I could be so pure.

I asked this elsewhere and got recs I don't remember and I still have that movie Frown insisted I see recently on my external hard drive to watch at a moments notice, but... what's good with Lovecraftian horror movies?

Nothing that you haven't already seen except for maybe Pontypool and Possesion (1981), both of which are more Lovecraftian on a secondary level.

So basically what I thought. There is a seriously depressing dearth of Lovecraftian horror movies, at least that are good.

well the best would be Braindead no contest, but I don't think it's horror enough to call horror. Football stadiums full of organs not withstanding.

Belial has the most horrifying shrieks found in this dimension

Really, though. It deeply saddens me that Bat is probably never gonna get around to adding Idle Hands to his Infinite Queue of Horror Flicks That He'll Maybe Get Around to Someday, and that Frown is too much of a boring bitch to discuss movies without whining about something as hilariously subjective as "taste".

Saddens me so much that I don't think I'm even up for butt stuff tonight.

I agree. It's a powerful flick. I think that the film isn't really about the mother going insane, but rather her son realizing how unstable she was after he started to notice those her demons in himself. Then he brings her out of it by improving his relationship with her as a way to heal/protect both of them and they live on knowing how easy it is to lose a grip on things. I thought that was kinda beautiful.
