Tentacle Ratings
A rough measure of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
- SSS__ (Three Tentacles: Lovecraftian)
I've not seen this film, but it seems to be a loose adaptation of (or perhaps sequel to) Pickman's Model (fiction).
Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.
