10 Intrusions From The Cthulhu Mythos Into Cinema

7. Mystery Of The Necronomicon

Mystery Of The Necronomicon Some might argue that a piece of Hentai has no place in this list. However one could easily counter argue that the very ambience and action of a lot of Hentai approaches a state similar to that we can expect when Lovecraft's eponymous Old One's return.
"The time would be easy to know, for then mankind will have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy."
In addition to the transgressive sexual and physical acts this hypothetical proposition evokes; Mystery of the Necronomicon does actually frame itself around a particularly Lovecraftian tale of investigation, mayhem, magic and forbidden tomes. One really cannot expect less from the creative team behind the original Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend.

David is grateful not only for the opportunity WhatCulture! has given him but also for the tens of thousands of views that you have given him. Particularly, when he still considers his efforts as somewhat clumsy and amateurish. Like H.P. Lovecraft, David will probably never be happy with his own work. Still this doesn't stop him studying E-Prime, Game Theory, Tantra, Magic, Media Analysis & Criticism along with many other things outside of his top secret day to day job and writing for WhatCulture! All of this in a no doubt conceited effort to improve not only his writing but also himself as a person.
