Lost H.P. Lovecraft´s silent adaptation from the 1920´s gets restored and finally hits DVD!

Well, not really. We already did our April Fool´s joke, but this one is real.

The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society presents an all new (and über cool) silent film, The Call of Cthulhu, where the famed story is brought richly to life in the style of a classic 1920s silent movie, with a haunting original symphonic score. Using the "Mythoscope" process, a mix of modern and vintage techniques, the HPLHS has worked to create the most authentic and faithful screen adaptation of a Lovecraft story yet attempted.

This extraordinary motion picture is now available on DVD. The DVD also features a making-of documentary, high-fidelity and Mythophonic audio, special features, and intertitles in twenty-four languages.

Here´s the trailer. The Quicktime version can be found at the official website.
