I’m pleased to announce H.P. Lovecraft’s The Other Gods will be screening at the 2007 Eerie Horror Film Festival. Come out to the Erie Playhouse October 11 at 6:30 PM, when The Other Gods will play ahead of the new Lovecraft inspired feature, Cthulhu.

“H.P. Lovecraft’s The Other Gods” is now featured on Animation World Network’s “That’s Demented” channel. AWN is a website catering to animation artists and fans worldwide, and I’m happy to be a part of their website.
The AWN Media Center is a new, comprehensive online video portal devoted exclusively to animation and showcasing the work of independent filmmakers from all over the world . When I submitted “The Other Gods,” I wasn’t sure what category it would fall under. “That’s Demented” seems like a good match.

This past weekend in H.P. Lovecraft’s hometown of Providence, Rhode Island, a new festival dedicated to literary and film fandom took place. The Other Gods screened during PULP UNCOVERED‘s “Afternoon of Lovecraft” at the Rhode Island School of Design.
Along with The Other Gods, the following subjects also played, courtesy of Lurker Films
- The Music of Eric Zann by John Strysik (1980, 17 minutes)
- Out of Mind: The Stories of H.P. Lovecraft by Raymond Saint-Jean (1998, 56 min)
- The Call of Cthulhu by Andrew Leman & Sean Branney (2005, 47 min, silent film)
This is one festival I wish I could have attended, but my work schedule made it impossible. Hopefully, I’ll get another opportunity next year!
“Delicious, occult eye-candy for the darker sensibilities of the soul.”
That’s what the generous Brooke from the Supernatural Things blog had to say about H. P. Lovecraft’s The Other Gods.
As far as compliments go, that’s a pretty nice one. Thanks, Brooke!

In addition, Jason Olshefsky of jayceland.com had this to say about the screening at the Little Theatre:
The films were generally very good but I particularly liked H.P. Lovecraft’s The Other Gods by Mike Boas which Mike had “restored” a formerly “lost” shadow-animation… all plausible and rather spooky, actually.
I want to extend a hearty thanks to everyone who braved the cold weather for Monday night’s Emerging Filmmakers series. It meant a lot to have family and friends there for The Other Gods’ first local theatrical screening. I had a great time talking movies and seeing what other indie artists had to show.
For those who missed it, don’t fret! I now have the entire short online for you to watch and share with your friends. Visit http://www.maddogmovies.com/theothergods/video.html
