Hmm, I don't think so - I'm surprised by the lack of Lovecraft movies in general (and not just movies inspired by him), but on the other hand I can see how his stories are probably pretty hard to recreate for a movie. One of the reasons why his stories work so well is that he gives you JUST enough info to create your own images in your mind. He really knew how to trigger your own imagination, and that's why I think any Lovecraft movie will always be disappointing at some level. No one can ever make something that lives up to the images your own mind has created for you.
