Gulliermo del Toro, Report To Cthulhu

Guillermo del Toro is bringing H.P. Lovecraft ’s At The Mountains Of Madness to the big screen in 2010 , although it sounds like he ’ll be juggling duties on that film while trying to make two concurrent The Hobbit feature picture . After working with a lamia , a fairy tale , a red - skinned demon , and a hobbit , he ’ll be bringing us shoggoths , and it ’s about blasted time . He also wants to abide true to the original germ material which he describes as “ a National Geographic special on a crew that disappear in an exploration mission . ”

Lovecraft ’s novella was first collected in serialized form in Astounding Stories , after being rejected by Weird Tales , in the thirties . If you ’ve tried reading it recently , you ’ll rule that it ’s filled with some pretty amazing descriptions of things like “ yawl horrors ” ( the shoggoths , who are basically monster striver labor ) ) and the monolithic city abandoned by the Elder Things . However , it also is drier than a thousand year sometime Saltine cracker .

del Toro wants to shoot that version of the story , even though “ iit ’s a compilation of really dry scientific annotations that happen to be annotate something really scarey . There is no fictional character or dramatic screw thread . ” So you cognise , kind of like Cloverfield , except with monsters that will make you crap your trouser . give his track record , we ’re moderately sure he ’d do a spectacular job with this and keep it from devolving into Aliens Vs . Predator . retrieve those elephantine monsters through the portal the Nazis opened up in Hellboy ? Yeah , those made us crap our pants too .
