“Cosmic Horror is Hard to Adapt” ITF Watch: Cabinet of Curiosities (2022 TV series) eps. 5 & 6

H. P. Lovecraft’s work is famously tricky to adapt, but that hasn’t stopped many from trying over the years. In episode 248, Luke & James discuss the pair of Lovecraft adaptations that appear in Guillermo Del Toro’s anthology series, “Pickman’s Model” and “Dreams in the Witch House,” directed by Keith Thomas and Catherine Hardwicke respectively. How well did they handle the (in)famous author’s material? Then Luke & James end their coverage casting their votes on which was better: story or adaptation for all five of the episodes covered!
