The Call of Cthulhu

A dying professor leaves his great-nephew a box of documents about the Cthulhu Cult, and the nephew (Matt Foyer) starts reading. Andrew Leman made this adaptation of the Lovecraft story as a silent film, shot in a blend of vintage and modern techniques to look like the 1920s. The more papers the man sorts through, the less he can pretend the old professor's questions were harmless.
