The End is Nigh (a reminder)...
The 15th Annual H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival and CthulhuCon starts tomorrow, and its an event not to be missed (although Unfilmable.com will be missing it again this year)! New films added to the 2010 schedule include the short Poe film Darkness There and Stuart Gordon's (who will also be in attendance) Dagon...
Sarah Covert's excellent site She Never Slept will be providing live broadcasts (courtesy of Alanna Quinn) Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 8PM (Pacific), as well as Twitter updates throughout the event, so flop on over to sheneverslept.com for updates...
The H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival promotes the works of H.P. Lovecraft, literary horror, and weird tales through the cinematic adaptations by professional and amateur filmmakers. The festival was founded in 1995 by Andrew Migliore in the hope that H.P. Lovecraft would be rightly recognized as a master of gothic horror and his work more faithfully adapted to film and television...

IT'S SO FLUFFAY!
For those of you who insist on some cuddliness in your Old Ones, yet another Cthulhu Plushie is being released, this time by Squishable. They seem to specialize in cute stuffed animals, and somehow have discovered the Ancient One as an inspiration.
The Green Slime!
I'm unsure how many of you are fans of classic Sci Fi, but one film fans have always waited for is The Green Slime
In this odd collaboration by Japan, Italy, and the United States, a huge meteor is on a collision course with earth and astronauts are sent to take care of it. But one of them carries some green slime back unknowingly, and it turns into a horrible tentacled monster, which quickly multiplies into a horde when it's discovered any form of energy causes it to replicate. A somewhat Lovecraftian plot, but it's more suited towards fans of Sci-Fi B-movies from the 50's and 60's.
Warner Brothers has announced it will be available via their Warner Archives next month. For those who don't know, the Warner Archives is a service in which you can choose a film from the list and they'll burn and mail a DVD to you. It's mostly older films they don't think would be a commercial success to release on DVD, which can be sucky if the print they use to make it with is rough. But it's the only way to get access to most of those films without buying a bootleg or foreign disc.

New Mythos game in the works...
Latina Estúdio is developing a new game based on the works of HPL called Mythos! The game, which takes place in an eerie parallel world, full of horrors and mystery, revolves around Randolph Carter, an adventurer and mystic who knows forbidden magic and lore, and who will fight with all his might to impede the resurrection of the Great Cthulhu, a brutal deity that desires not to govern the world, but merely to destroy it...

New Shadow Out of Time artwork and update...
Richard Svensson and Daniel Lennéer, filmmakers who most recently worked together on Terror from the Abyss (watch it here), are collaborating on an adaptation of Lovecraft's masterpiece The Shadow Out of Time! According to Richard, aka The Lone Animator, he and Daniel were both working on their own versions of the story (we previously reported on Richard's untitled "Yith" project here), when they decided to join forces and tackle the story together...
Richard also sent along some incredible "production art" revealing a showdown between a Yithian and a Flying Polyp. Interestingly, the background is a 2D image created from photos of ceramic tiles...
The film is currently in the pre-production phase, but Richard says that they hope to shoot later this year...
