Best Movies With Lovecraftian Influence

Unrecognized at his time and lived much of his life in poverty, Howard Phillips Lovecraft shaped the horror fiction of a century and had a lasting legacy that still influences the horror genre through various mediums.Among many other recurring themes, he mostly wrote about the humanity's insignificance in the universe, sanity's fragility, fear of the unknown, limitations and dangers of knowledge and its pursuit. He developed and used a philosophy of "Cosmicism" in his work, and his ideas, writings and further influence grew into a subgenre called after him, namely "Lovecraftian horror".His influence on literature can be seen particularly on modern horror and fantasy writers as well as many other authors. Lovecraft's writing style and themes of his work have been proved to be difficult to adapt on big screen. Many adaptations up to now had a hard time due to various other reasons, but of course there have been some exceptions.
