Lovecraft: Fear of the Unknown (2008) Frank H. Woodward, Robin Atkin Downes, Neil Gaiman, Peter Straub, Documentary
Journey into the life and work of the weird fiction author who gave us the Cthulu mythos and inspired such notable horror authors as Stephen King, Robert Bloch, and Neil Gaiman. Though initially overshadowed by the masterfully morbid prose of author Edgar Allen Poe, H.P.

Discover how an Old World xenophobe crafted one of literature’s greatest mythologies, and why his works continue to fascinate readers long after his untimely death as John Carpenter, Guillermo Del Toro, Peter Straub, and others reflect on Lovecraft’s crucial role in the history of horror fiction.
