关于克苏鲁神话
克苏鲁神话(Cthulhu Mythos)是以霍华德·菲利普·洛夫克拉夫特的小说世界为基础，由奥古斯特·威廉·德雷斯整理完善、诸多作者共同创造的架空神话体系。克苏鲁并非此架空世界中的主神，虽然它是在地球上很常见的信仰，这些神话的题材可能来自世界各地神话传说的再诠释（如北美传说中的雪怪温迪戈(Wendigo)）。只要是接受洛夫克拉夫特小说的概念而衍伸创作的小说都可以纳入此神话的一部分，所以此神话系统至今还在扩展，仍有许多新的创作。

The Eldritch Influence looks at the world of literary outsider H.P. Lovecraft who posthumously infected a large number of artists, writers, mystics and fanatics with his wonderfully bleak worldview. Using passionate interviews and colorful commentary the film presents a picture of Lovecraft's life and thought through those he's touched and inspired. Featuring Lovecraft biographer S.T. Joshi, authors Ramsey Campbell, Neil Gaiman, Brian Lumley and filmmaker Stuart Gordon. Written by Shawn Owens
