The Unnamable 2: The Statement of Randolph Carter (1992) Reviews

I haven't seen the original, but this was recommended to me by this website, and it seemed based on HP Lovecraft, whose work I enjoy, so I rented it. I wasn't expecting much, and I didn't get much. Not bad, really a snoozer more than anything else. While the movie used terms, locations, and character names from Lovecraft, they seemed to have ignored his actual stories. Instead of the Cthulhu mythos, you get some sort of female demon. She doesn't do anything except move slowly and kill people dumb enough not to run away from her. In fact, that's most of the movie. One guy and one girl running slowly away from her while various bystanders and police get killed. While it's rated R, I'm hard pressed to figure out why it is. Some gore, but very little, I've seen worse in PG-13 movies. While one character is nude much of the time, she's always concealed by her hair which moves magically to cover her strategic areas. The monster suit is nude, but that's the same as a mannequin.
