Evil canine of the female persuasion

meh

Excellent ! 👍

Does his coffee cup have a Cthulhu head on it??!!

Just turn it off, and then on again.

04:10. And yet no one detained Samantha on suspicion of corporate espionage, sabotage, vandalism, acting on behalf of a foreign hostile state, black hat hacking, or vandalism. :-/

When the portal opened, the protagonist should have said "Hmm, undocumented behaviour." or something else deadpan.

nice little details qith the SQUIDS team banner on the wall and the coffee cup logo

Great vídeo man

idk why this film did not go viral, it is super impressive

Loved this short film & the short comic it is based on. I wish there was a 3rd "Cthulhu Tales" omnibus from BOOM! Studios to devour. But what we got with the "Cthulhu Tales: Delerium" & "Cthulhu Tales: Madness" omnis are anthologies comprised of mostly solid-to-great comics that are original, thoughtful, capture a sense of eerie & unnerving fear of the unknown, contain atmospheric dread(be it predicated on the cosmic level, the more intimate insanity-based level, or both at the same time), & pay homage, in some way or another, to Lovecraft's works or influences. All of these qualities just mentioned are hallmarks of enjoyable Lovecraftian fiction, in my humble opinion. Like many films, short or otherwise(especially in the horror & noir genres-- but found among others such as fantasy & sci-fi, as well, to be sure), a fair number of filmmakers, showrunners(& studios, in general) are turning to the medium of comic books & graphic novels for inspiration. I, for one, am ecstatic to see this being the case, being a lover of comics & graphic novels for the last 26 years of my life. There is much to be mined from the world of comics & graphic novels that can be used for the purpose of adaptation to the screen, big or small. I hope this trend continues, as I, personally, feel that no small number of films & shows are little more than remakes, reworkings, reimaginings, or close to being nothing more than regurgitated copies of films from the past with only minor changes made here & there. This seems to be most true when dealing with the genres of horror, sci-fi, & fantasy-- 3 genres I absolutely love. And it saddens me. Of course there are exceptions of originality by some horror/fantasy/sci-fi filmmakers: see the works of Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead(ex: "The Endless"), Panos Cosmatos(ex: "Mandy"), Robert Eggers(ex: "The Lighthouse"), and Guillermo Del Toro(ex: "Pan's Labyrinth") to name a few. I would recommend checking out all of the films of these 4 filmmakers. And I have to recommend, with every fiber of my being, that you checkout "Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities," if you have Netflix. It is an anthology of 8 films, most with a run time of around an hour(but there are a couple of episodes that are a bit shorter). Del Toro acts as the show's creator, curator, executive producer, co-showrunner, host, & the writer of both the 1st & last entries. But all 8 films are directed by a different director; and the directors all due an excellent job of storytelling. The choice of directors, be it the aforementioned Panos Cosmatos(also check out his bizarre & creepy film, "Beyond the Black Rainbow") with his trippy nightmarish episode titled, "The Viewing," or the wonderfully disturbing adaptation of HPL's "Pickman's Model" by Keith Thomas-- whose 1st feature film was the intriguing AND goosebump-inducing, "The Vigil,"... every one of the 8 episodes has its merits, & gives hope that there are directors-- and writers, for that matter-- who can offer something fresh & truly scary, thought-provoking, &/or emotional instead of the recycled clichés Hollywood has a knack for re-doing & redistributing, regardless of whether or not fans of the genre(and possibly the original films themselves) even want. Thus ends my rant, lol(I blame my bipolar mania). I got a bit sidetracked in my comment about the influence of comics & graphic novels on films & shows today. I'll just say that I love comics, & I think they are rife with possibilities, in terms of adaptations into films & series. But I like to know there are those such as Del Toro, & the directors he offered episodes to in his "Cabinet of Curiosities" anthology, who either write their own material, or take inspiration from inspired prose(not comics) horror/sci-fi/fantasy writers when choosing to direct a project. This particular short gives me hope for the future. As do the comics creators this short is based on.

Not much horror but that was still really fun to watch!

Cthulhu himself saw this and approves.......

Entertaining Propaganda

If you truly knew how not funny this was and how much Stranger Than truth it may be

Seeing this made me have to go listen to Hey there, Cthulhu.

Well Cthulhu is called The Ancient One, The Eater of Worlds for a reason lol I love anything that deals with Lovecraft, that man had a mind like no other, not even Stephen King could match his nightmares lol

Well Done! While I enjoyed the subject lines and senders in "Samantha's" e-mail list, the Cthullubucks coffee cup was my fave. While I'm not an IT professional myself, I know enough of them to know that their jobs can often feel like journeys into Lovecraftian Madness as they seek to solve problems created by hapless employees. :)

Loved the Squids pennant on his workstation wall.

that coffee was never ending

my man was really just eating 3 slices of bread with a slice of cheese in between em, that’s an insane man’s lunch

Nice job

Super bad ass! Can you guys please keep making films like this!

Gracias CARMELO

Were the actors supposed to be purposely terrible?

Wow! So happy I found your work. Stellar, I say🐙 Great script, pacing, design, ideas... Love it! Thanks 🐙

Not bad, needs a different soundtrack

Very enjoyable. Thank you.

Love the coffee cup logo. Stars over R'yleh? Maybe? Starry Dawn Coffee? The Esoteric Order? "Good to the last Abomination!" Should be the slogan.

"Lucky for me I had enough spare parts to build a supercomputer." Allow me to ponder that statement.

Ok…..THAT was cool! More please.

One does not just uninstall Cthulhu.

Twist at the end with it being the woman actually ruined it. I'd rather the virus had been randomly downloaded, and our protagonist killed INDIRECTLY by her naivety, rather than a deliberate act.

I love to see Lovecraft's Cosmic Horror being adaptated to a modern world. I wonder what HP would have written with the knowledge of the Big Bang, outer space, Artificial Intelligence, spaceships and so on

This is nothing. I built a quantum computer with a few milk crates, some Eggos and gorilla glue

This is well made! Damn!

very well done with such cool style

awesome -- great stuff!

Yea.. and sometimes, at nite, when im bored, i use the junk n my junk drawer to build a warp drive ..

Ha! Great soundtrack and all of the logos! I am seeing a football team called Squids!

Always remember to randomly give the IT people snacks ... they know how to fix/delete and mess with you. Turn your screen sideways? Love those pranksters!

a film by:Ivan radovic, *happy balkan noises*

Careful what you download. I get the impression Samantha knew something she wasn't telling. Nice work.

Good job!

The Squids?

Great story :). I think the starbucks logo was a litlte Cthulhu but maybe I'm wrong, but I don't want to be :). Thanks for this!

Good one! I enjoyed it. Wish such things were possible...

Somehow I stumbled across this, but it was worth watching.
