I hate how modern consensus of a lovecraft-flick is just funny alien monsters, that shit is like the last 1% of his stories and that's what made his stories actually good unlike other pulp fiction slops.

Word. Some of the best stories, like The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, The Dreams in the Witch House or The Shunned House barely have any aliens.

Dreams in the Witch House is full of aliens. His dreams are him exploring the cosmos, almost as an astral projection, and the creatures he encounters are aliens.
Hell, he even meets the elder things.

Why do so many people who openly hate Lovecraft make things based on his works? Could it be that he is a hundred times more creative than they will ever be so they ape on his shit, but their smug moral superiority forces them to constantly remind you that they're actually better than him because they aren't racist?

Might be a pet-peeve but I HATE how Cthulhu looks in 99% of portrayals. He just looks like big scary angry monster man, instead of the alien being he is supposed to look like.
Most Cthulhu art is just angry red eyes monster that looks more like a big angry kaiju than anything Lovecraft drew.

They are mentally ill and obsessed with "fixing" what they feel is wrong. Basically revisionism disguised as progressiveness.

Yea but that's supposed to be an effigy made by some madmen and is what they could understand from thulhu. In reality it could be way more fucked up and the squid dragon man thing is the only thing that makes any sense about it

>>740157813
The proof that he was racist is that he married a Jew, never ask a white supremacist the ethnicity of his woman.

>>740163939
Oh I agree, but that reinforces my point even more. Cthulhu in the story is described as a being of impossible plasticity, regenerating its fetid shape in strange unfathomable patterns.
That's even FURTHER away from the common portrayal of big angry buff guy with frowning evil angry red eyes and a squid for a head.

>>740163950
There were times in which, while walking through New York with his wife, he'd mutter antisemetic slurs at jews passing by, and she'd have to remind him that she, herself, was jewish

I'm pretty sure there's a lot of women into those books for some reason.
Personally I found them kinda mediocre, but desu, Lovecraft very much is the exception, not the norm, when it comes to the quality of pulp stories.

It will always be funny to me the way support for racism came from unexpected direction. They just called it "racial separation".

Ayo, eight certified goat MCs tripped on some dusty old spell book and woke up a MAD prehistoric busta from the bottom of the ocean. Now this fool is beefing with everybody and he ain't even got a SoundCloud. His creepy-ass cult is deep in hip-hop underground turning real ones into straight-up crackers and only them same uncs who started this mess can fix it.

Rap your way up outta the void or get swallowed up, nigguhhh.

It was terrible. Zero gameplay, forced "mental detective parts", nigger hero...
I uninstalled the pirate version when you have to replace several dirty pipes to get the water to flow or something.

I played The Council. It was janky but mostly good until the writer's dog ate the last pages of the script.
Their other games just look awful.

Literally one short dream scene. Two if you count the vague and almost forgotten sensation of visiting Azathoth's throne. That's far from "full".

The real hilarity is how much they misunderstand Lovecraft's racism and just assume it was, "He didn't like black people!" The Horror at Red Hook was about Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian immigrants. Shadow Over Innsmouth was inspired by him learning he had Welsh in his ancestry.

They write these pathetic fanfics of, "Oh, I will make it so he has a black granddaughter! He would be so mad!" When the reality is as long as her parents and she were American Rhode Islanders he would be more accepting of a black granddaughter than if he found out a newly immigrated Dutchman or Dane married into his family. His xenophobia had a clear hierarchy, with American Rhode Islanders at the top, all other Americans after that, pure Anglo-Saxon British third, and everyone else some kind of degenerate freak whose genetics had not been uplifted by being born in the USA last.

But the truth is all they know is that he had a cat named Niggerman, and that is enough to condemn him and all his works, even as they owe much of their success and inspiration to him, which really gets their panties in a bunch.

>>740166715
He has two dreams that involve aliens, but yeah, maybe "full" is a bit far

Would he?

This is a myth. He was proud of his Welsh ancestry. Also Horror at Red Hook definitely was about "Asiatic" migrants, and he had a lot of respect for most Europeans, distinctly noting the difference in quality between the mulatto mexican and the "purebred" Spaniard.
And he ABSOLUTELY would have minded if his granddaughter was a negro.

>>740167429
Even if you all the extra-dimensional entities from the dreams (guess you could) and Nigga Jenkins (fair too) the story is far from "full". I mean, there are some pacts with aliens during Curwen's past in The Case of Charles Dexter Ward too, but its really minor.

>>740167607
He disliked rednecks, sailors and other unsorted white trash as much as he did with foreigners. Huge overlap in demographics tho.
