Horror movies

Movies and shorts based on the works of HP Lovecraft (some only loosely), have Lovecraftian themes or strong references to Lovecraft or are clearly Lovecraft inspired.

Some might be fringe cases and not considered Lovecraftian by purists but are included because the atmosphere is suggestive of Lovecraft's work, there are clear nods to Lovecraft and in some case it is just because of name dropping or big tentacle monsters.

Missing on Trakt:
- Corpse-O-Rama (2001)
- The Whisperer in Darkness (2007)
- Lovecraft Chronicles (2009 Series)

Robots! Space! Aliens! Dystopian Futures!

All things that fascinated me as a child, and still do. Hope y'all enjoy.

Sorry to anyone that used the last list. Somehow, I deleted by accident.

This isn't intended to be a comprehensive list. I'm just going to be periodically updating this list with titles from the following IMDB search parameters:

Standalone movies I want to watch...

Movies taking place mostly underwater with monsters.. there are fewer of these than you’d think. If you know of any that are missing please let me know.

Without a doubt, the #1 curated list of all H.P. Lovecraftian cinema! It's organized from hits to lesser hits to "your desperate for another film from this genre and will take anything". ;) I've left off any piece that is deemed too low budget, lacks other-wordly beings, or is just plain boring.

Message me if you can think of a movie that is not on the list that you think should be. :)

Trakt list for the ultimate collection of Bass Heavy movies.

Movies

A selection of talassophobic movies.

Thalassophobia is the fear of deep bodies of water such as oceans, lakes, rivers or even pools. That phobia includes just being in deep bodies of water, the fear of the vast emptiness of the sea, being trapped underwater, or aquatic creatures lurking below in murky waters.

In general it is not the fear of the ocean itself even but the vastness and emptiness of it and how small we are compared to what might be in it, which can include the fear of man-made objects or just giant things unter water in related sub-phobias.

In other words, this list consists of movies with a deep-sea horror vibe or maritime movies with a strong emphasize on isolation and survival under or above water that might trigger thalassophobia.

No genertic aquatic creature features, martime movies, submarine movies or movies with a sinking ship included that otherwise are not ocean centric. Also no shorts and documentaries.

Though not all movies set in the ocean or another body of water trigger thalassophobia. For example phobics have no problem watching "Avatar 2" (mainly because of all the clean water).

List order:
Each entry besides #1 is paired with a bonus movie not part of the ranking so all the ones on uneven numbers aren't actually part of his ranking.
