Lots of people have called The Beach House Lovecraftian and it’s also had plenty of comparisons to Nicolas Cage’s alien infection fable Colour Out Of Space. I have neither read Lovecraft nor seen that film, though if you want to know what Lovecraftian horror is there’s a handy wiki page here. I found watching The… The Beach House – ending, spoilers, and that jelly… Read More
