The HP Lovecraft Festival is running a special series of screenings at the Grand Illusion Cinema in Seattle, WA on March 20 – 26, 2009. From the Grand Illusion’s website:
The Grand Illusion is proud to bring Portland’s highly popular celebration of Old Ones and Elder Gods to Seattle! Founded in 1995 by Andrew Migliore, the festival celebrates H.P. Lovecraft, the master of Gothic horror. Starting with the goal of encouraging more adaptations for film and television, the festival has exploded into a multi-media, multi-city event hosting such distinguished guests as singer/poet Patti Smith, artist Mike Mignola, and author Ramsey Campbell. A haven for filmmakers and fans, the festival has created its own following: a unique community of iconoclasts, all speaking the international language of cosmic horror. This presentation is a collection of shorts from the past 13 years of the festival.
