All I fucking want is a HBO show on Call of Cthulhu. Is that so much to ask?
You had one.
Edit: forgot pic
why not just do a diff story each week? instead of just doing CoC?

Honestly, CoC would be one of the only stories you could actually adapt into mockumentary horror.
So you wan't 5 episodes of a guy digressing about a clay sculpture.
>mfw a pleb fails to notice the supernatural elements of True Detective near me
A good HBO show is always a happy accident, True Detective would never have been as good unless it had Fukunaka directing it.

This.
It'd be better if the main was a scholar of the Cult of Cthulu, and worked as a stand-in for a bunch of the protagonists from the mythos stories. Maybe even make him Wilbur Whatley, and the series ends with him transforming.

hopefully a studio will let del taco make a movie of mountains of madness without them making it PG-13 or adding some action-romance shit
Shadow Over Innsmouth would be better

why don't you read the story first?
Call of Cthulhu is easily one of the weakest stories by Lovecraft.

ok

Lovecraft is reddit-tier

taking him out with a boat engine propeller was a pretty good way to end it imo. lovecraft's monsters are generally shown to be vulnerable to mundane threats. the mi-go get routinely taken out by one guy with a deer rifle and a few dogs, despite being advanced spacefaring aliens from another dimension. it's what they're capable of when they get their hands on their own technology/magic that makes lovecraft villains so powerful.
that said, CoC is admittedly one of his weaker stories
