I hate to rain on your parade, but Abdul Alhazred was a pseudonym of Lovecraft. Something of a tribute to his childhood love of the 1001 Arabian Nights. So whitewashed isn't really accurate. You could call it cultural appropriation, a century before that was a term anyone had invented. The best thing about judging historical figures by modern morality is that they all are found wanting. So racist Lovecraft ends up in the same ash heap as racist Mark Twain, racist Abraham Lincoln, and racist Gandhi. Yay

Have you actually read 4 or more Lovecraft novels? I honestly think he is extremely over rated. All of his novels that I've read have always left me wanting. I get that the point is humans can't comprehend the true horror/ leaving the ending more or less open to the imagination makes it more terrifying but to me it just seems lazy. Writing a satisfying and good ending to any story is probably the hardest part of any story. An ending where every detail of the story is important and every set up is paid off take an amazing amount of time and effort. Examples are count of monte Cristo, voices of the fire, glass castles, and for TV shows one that comes to mind with an incredible perfect ending is code Geas. Lovecraft endings, or at least the novels I read never had an ending like this. Let me know please. I always wanted to discuss on this with someone

Fun fact, i worked in this movie. Actually in Kingdom of madness, the third movie. Although "work" is not really the word for what we did. We spent most of the time arguing with Arcana about technical issues. We were actually hired by a spanish company that was hired by Arcana, so you can imagine the communication problem there. In the end we were tasked to animate around 15 minutes of the entire movie and to this day i really don´t want to check if they even used our work at all.

Naturally, the kids win (Mandy exploits a loophole), and as Grim lost the contest, he now has to be "their best friend forever", with all the indentured servitude and blatant abuse of his powers that the kids could ever want. The "Prank Calls of Cthulhu" premise is an episode where Billy and Irwin (a mutual friend) get summer jobs working for Chthulu by making prank calls that turn the call recipients into monsters. There's a fairly impressive amount of body horror involved for a kid's show, so if horror and dark comedy are your thing, maybe give it a go? It's pretty good!

Here are some fun facts regarding H.P. Lovecraft: 1. He was good friends and pen pals with another famous and influential English writer: Robert E. Howard, the creator of Conan the Barbarian. 2. Lovecraft actually regretted many of the racist things he said, and even married a Jewish woman. 3. In Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated, Jefferey Combs voiced a recurring character that was based on Lovecraft himself, although his name was changed to H.P. Hatecraft.

I will say this: In my personal opinion, the character design itself isn’t bad. The artstyle does have a sort of odd charm. The main problem here is basically everything else, with the animation, script, environment, voice acting and... yes... the source material. If this were only *inspired* by Lovecraft they could have had a lot more creative freedom here. They wouldn’t even have needed to change all that much. It’s a shame. If this had been made by a more competent studio and had only taken inspiration from Lovecraft it could have been a classic. I’m still surprised this is even a trilogy at all with how bad just the first movie is.

Gonna be honest: the first movie's beginning isn't even that bad. Children's movies don't have to be all happy & nice. I remember a lot of dark stories written for kids, like f.ex Goosebumps or "Geschichten vom schwarzen Schiff" (German book) and the set-up of "boy meets his dad for his birthday...in an insane asylm", has the same sarcastic energy like these stories. Had the first movie a better build-up story, better, more (Tim Burton) grotesque fitting imagery with dark humor that's not too strong, while not dancing around the issue of Lovecraft's stories either... ...yeah, could have been something, maybe.

You know what, even if you ignore how inappropriate the cosmic horror stuff is in a kids movie, I also find it kind of awful to center a kids movie around HP Lovecraft as a child and present him as having wacky adventures with fantastical creatures, when in the real world he was at least emotionally if not also physically abused by his mentally ill mother and suffered from depression, anxiety and nightmares from a very early age, these nightmares being what inspired his horror writing in the first place. They took the real-life story of child abuse and neglect, and turned it into some fun wacky adventure, and it's just all in really poor taste.
