The Tomb (2007 film)

HP Lovecrafts The Tomb is a 2007 United States production horror film that is supposedly based on H.P. Lovecrafts 1917 story, The Tomb. However, many reviewers have noted that the plot of this film is completely unrelated to the Lovecraft short story.

Tara Victoria Ullmann and Billy Christian Behm awake in a dark basement or warehouse, bloodied and covered with wounds. As they explore the empty surroundings, they find other wounded people who die in horrible ways at the hands of The Puppetmaster, a sinister villain who plays a deadly game with them in which there will be only one survivor. H.P. Lovecraft is mentioned several times during the course of the film by some characters, and the Puppetmaster is referred to as Charles Dexter Ward and one of his victims as Pickman a reference to Lovecrafts story Pickmans Model. However these passing references to Lovecraftian characters and a quote from one of Lovecrafts stories about going beyond ye spheres are largely irrelevant to the serial killer plot played out on screen.Production of HP Lovecrafts The Tomb took place during August 2005 in Marina Del Rey, California, at a warehouse on Princeton Drive that has since been demolished. The scenes at the Palm Desert Motel were shot on an indoor set at the same warehouse. Exteriors were shot in the high desert near Palmdale, California. ........
