EPISODE6 - The Lovecraft Geek
What are your thoughts about the relation of Ridley Scotts' "Prometheus" to Lovecraft and "At the Mountains of Madness"? What was HPL's attitude to prohibition? I was wondering who you would cast as pivotal characters in any film adaption of HPL's stories if you had the power of casting director. Do you picture an actor's face when you read any stories? What did that poor girl find at the end of Machen's The White People and what happened to her? What the heck is a Voorish Dome? or Voor for that matter? There are quite a few hard-to-pronounce names and places in Lovecraft's work. How many of these alien sounds did Lovecraft actually specify in his letters or other works? Although HPL always talked about our cosmic insignificance, what is with the preponderance of cosmic entities, alien races, etc., on Earth?
