One of the best B-movies to ever come from an HPL poem...creativity at its finest! Heck, I would actually go see that play!

Rent? Own? Copy? You mean you aren't haunted by these images in your dreams?

more Lovecraft-inspired than literally Lovecraft, but this seems like the right forum for this:

If we're talking about any reference- Lovecraft's "That is not dead" poem is on the cover for Maiden's Live After Death album.

Dr. Zoidberg is the funniest and most pathetic character on Futurama. He is definitely based on a Cthulhuoid physical format, though he's red, portly, has lobster claws and a blowhole. He has face tentacles, so there you go!
The episode "Roswell that Ends Well," where the characters traveled back to Earth 1947 in Roswell (due to a malfunctioning microwave oven in the ship's kitchen), was fabulous. Dr. Zoidberg was captured by the U.S. Army and interrogated by President Truman, and Zoidberg accused Truman of hitting on him. Then they performed a live autopsy on Dr. Zoidberg, and he kept cracking jokes the whole time. The doctors were fishing out his stomach contents, and every time they removed a deviled egg and put it in a pan, Zoidberg ate it again. The doctors were irritated.
The computer game "Fallout 3" has a "Dunwich Building" full of ghouls, with a strangely carved obelisk in a cavern underneath and a bit of a Lovecraftesque backstory.

Ethan Suppley (sic?) from "My Name is Earl" was on Chelsea Lately tonight wearing a HP Lovecraft shirt...

I saw a girl with a Cradle of Filth shirt on last night... had Cthulhu on it.

There is a new board-based wargame called Monsterpocalypse whereby you basically reinact a Kaiju monster movie; it has a faction blatantly based on Cthulhu. Their name? Lords of Cthul:lol:
Oh and it's a good game too.

Whaddya mean? You didn't learn all that in school ? Of course, I was home-schooled, so it goes without saying.

First time I've seen that blog, but I recognized the style of some of that art work (the giant Cthulhu painting, and the scarf), and yep, it's her. Here's her portfolio site, it is a mass of tentacle-ness.
