Anybody else like cosmic horror and existentialism ?

I’m a Lovecraft fan, so I like this vibe.

Grew up on H. P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, frank Belknap Long, Robert E. Howard, etc. -- all the "Lovecraft Circle" and the Cthulhu Mythos since my early teens in the early 1960s. Not so sure about it being existentialist, though.

damn thats eerie

Check out the film Cosmic Monsters.

The Strange World of Planet X (a.k.a. Cosmic Monsters in the United States) is an independently made 1958 British science fiction horror film, produced by George Maynard and John Bash, directed by Gilbert Gunn, that stars Forrest Tucker and Gaby André. The film was distributed in the UK in February, 1958[2] by Eros Films. It was released in the US on July 7, 1958 by Distributors Corporation of America.

I appreciate absurdity, surrealism, and I think existentialism offers an answer that without an answer that offers some semblance of thought making sense in this world....now I rarely see it in a horror comic sort of way, but I see it.

Groot`s dad? 🤔

It's not my forte, but I enjoyed the climax of 2011 movie Cabin in the Woods, for its cosmic horror vibe, which was completely unexpected. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it, but it still sticks in my head.

I’ll get nightmares now… 😑

I have read a few Novels in my youth.

I never heard of it

Is that Jean-Paul Sartre?
