Cthulhu is a 2007 American thriller/horror movie, directed by Dan Gildark and co-written by Grant Cogswell and Daniel Gildark. The film is loosely based on the short story "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" (1936) by H.P. Lovecraft.
The film moves the story from New England to the Pacific Northwest. Unlike the Lovecraft story, the film has a gay protagonist. Screenwriter Grant Cogswell explained that he and Gildark chose to exploit the metaphor for the horror faced by a gay person returning for a relative's funeral and having to face the horrors of small-town life.[1]
The film premiered June 14, 2007 at the Seattle International Film Festival.
