| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankePretty much botched Lovecraft adaptation. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThe animated opening credits sequence is the best part of a leadenly paced picture that grows less gripping as it moseys along. |
| User ReviewFred SThis is probably my favorite movie adaptation of a Lovecraft story. It's not 100% faithful to the story, but it's great as a 70's style horror film. |

| User ReviewAl MThe Dunwich Horror is a rather loose adaptation of the Lovecraft classic from Roger Corman's production studio. The sublime horror of Lovecraft's masterpiece of short fiction is mostly absent from this flim, but in its place we get a trippy, surrealistic piece of B-movie horror that is fun and bizarre from beginning to end. If you enjoy Corman's Poe flim or Hammer Studios films, then you are likely to find The Dunwich Horror to be a delighful if somewhat silly adaptation of Lovecraft. |
| User ReviewBrian SAh, c'mon... how can you not love this cheezball mash-up of H.P. Lovecraft and 60's psychedelia? So many unintentionally funny moments, such a hammy performance by Dean Stockwell, and we get to see one of Sandra Dee's boobs. Silly fun that tried so hard and missed by a mile, but there's so much entertainment value here! |
