Tackling the concept of meta-horror before it was cool, "In the Mouth of Madness" isn't John Carpenter's most recognizable movie but it's certainly one of his most original.

Clever and surreal horror, in which the mystery remains mysterious even past the closing credits. It's surprising, has great practical effects and a story that you can wrap your head around.

Carpenter's career was in decline by now, but this still stands up as a great piece of psychological horror. Extremely surreal and preferring to continually blur the line between fact and fiction, you never feel your perceptions are quite on solid ground. It also has one of my very favourite endings of any movie!

Very entertaining, intense horror, not completely atmospheric like i expected and what i still think would be better.

This film does not do justice to HP Lovecraft. Beware the cheese . . . impossible to walk in this muck.

As a fervant supporter of H.P. Lovecraft, it's a wonder to see a film that takes his ideas and actually pulls off a good interpretation as such. If you've read any of his work, you'll recognize the themes right away. Creepy and diabolical.
