    I sure do! I love the part where it turns out I’m the actual protagonist and die screaming!

      Just so you know, Sutter Cane is not a real person, he is a villain from John Carpenter’s 1994 movie, In The Mouth of Madness, the title of which is a reference to H.P. Lovecraft’s At The Mountain of Madness

        Thanks for the info. I wondered if the title had any reference to the Lovecraft book.

          It’s totally an excellent movie worth checking out in any respect :)

          I absolutely adore Sam Neill in horror movies

A community to discuss Cosmic Horror in it’s many forms; books, films, comics, art, TV, music, RPGs, video games etc.

“cosmic horror… is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible more than gore or other elements of shock… themes of cosmic dread, forbidden and dangerous knowledge, madness, non-human influences on humanity, religion and superstition, fate and inevitability, and the risks associated with scientific discoveries… the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person, insignificance and powerlessness at the cosmic scale…”
