98% of the movies "based" on lovecrafts work SUCK. It slike Dean Koontz movies. They suck and blow with equal intensity.

Dagon was awful. I have been reluctant to see Reanimator or The Beyond (think thats what it is called....) because they are not even very closely based on the stories they take the title from (although reanimator is a classic... i will catch it someday....)

Hell, Dagon had absolutely NOTHING to do with the story, it was actually a bastardised version of "The Shadow over Innsmouth". it was set in a spanish town, rather than new england (which is blasphemy), and they "cleverly" called the town "Imboca"(sp?). Boca being spanish for mouth.....

Turds.....

Anywho, back on topic... I always liked Shub-Niggurath.. Another God of lovecraft's that i dont think ever makes a personal appearance.... it might though....
