Arts One Thing You Could Do Tonight, If You Like Giggling
Brad Steinbacher suggests a SIFF film:
‘The Call of Cthulhu’
(SIFF FILM) Based on the cult H. P. Lovecraft story, The Call of Cthulhu is a fine example of creativity trumping—actually, outright spanking—a lack of funding. A mere 47 minutes long, director Andrew Leman’s film takes its style from the early silent greats, crafting a gorgeous, haunting, pitch-perfect mini-epic. Short films rarely get me excited; this one had me giggling. Shows with the shorts The Radium Follie and Terra Incognita. (Broadway Performance Hall, 1625 Broadway, 324-9996. 9:15 pm, $10.)
This is not to be confused with Cthulhu, the movie that Dan Gildark and Grant Cogswell are making (which has also had its share of financial hiccups, and isn’t finished yet, though I think it’s been shot)…
Thanks for clearing that up, Christopher. But our (CTHULHU's)hiccups are over, the movie is in post-production, and a rough cut is going to be submitted to the Toronto Film Festival on the 9th. There will be a SIFF party/fundraiser for our short FRANK HAYES at Liberty at 7 PM on Wednesday the 14th, if you're up there.
