H.P. Lovecraft’s Witch House Gets Eerily Haunting
The original short story for “The Dreams in the Witch House” (Weird Tales) reads slightly similar to the story from “H.P Lovecraft’s Witch House” movie. There is undoubtedly a house and an attic and a student (who might be good at maths, who knows.) Other specific characters from the book have been built into the adaptation too. However, most of them have changed significantly. H.P. Lovecraft’s Witch House tries to bring the odd and the unusual into its production.
It’s a narrative similar to the film “Prince of Darkness” which mixes religion and science while dousing everything in Lovecraftian aesthetic. The estate in this film is a haunted house that infects Alice’s dreams with things she later can’t remember. Alice wants to connect the dots between this weird house while trying to uncover alternate dimensions. Of course, the house has significant objects that enable everything people have historically said about this creepy old house to become true. H.P. Lovecraft’s Witch House churns out plenty of dark and gruesome imagery in its attempts to pull together the best parts of the original tale.

Overall the cinematography was way too dark. Probably to make up for budget restraints. There’s a sex scene about halfway through, that although it was nicely done, didn’t quite have a reason to be there. Many Lovecraft films do like to sprinkle in some jarring scenes so I suppose it can be waived away for that reason. Dream and reality certainly do blur in director Bobby Easley’s take on all things weird.
I can’t say I was a huge fan of this movie. I almost feel like I got played by the use of the H.P. Lovecraft name.
