Cthulhu Filming In Seattle This Week
According to the Cthulhu blog you have today through Thursday if you want to go gawk at the movie being filmed around Seattle. Today they're scheduled to be up on First Hill, tomorrow in Rainier Beach and then Thursday should be their last day of local filming with stops at Pike Place, ConWorks and Allentown. They'll be in Goonie Country on the 22nd.
No idea what we're talking about? Cthulhu unpronouncable gibberish? You need to bone up on your Lovecraft as well as your local editorialist/screenwriter/activist/politician types. Check out the site and don't miss the trailer.

DW: First off, where did the idea for the story come from?:Grant Cogswell: When we set out to make a horror film, I just immediately gravitated to Lovecraft. The stories, to me, seem very contemporary. He taps into something timeless, and they are astoundingly effective. I think the best two are '"The Colour out of Space" and "The Shadow Over Innsmouth"; they really hit on a kind of dread that I think intersects with the great dreads of our time: fear over what is happening to the environment. and a creeping fascism in U.S. culture
