Certified Crap. CrapScore 65, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
An office worker learns that he is Lovecraft's last descendant and must help stop ancient monsters. The horror mythology becomes a modest buddy-adventure full of tabletop-gaming jokes and reluctant heroism. Barak Hardley's nervous enthusiast gives the improvised team a useful comic spark.
