Set your H.P. Lovecraft expectations aside and you just might enjoy The Dunwich Horror. The film features a great cast, including Sandra Dee, Dean Stockwell, Ed Begley, Lloyd Bochner, Sam Jaffe, and Talia Shire. While the results may not be 100% successful, the cinematography looks spectacular, the often cliché visual effects are used creatively, and the direction is spot on. Could a 1970 film adapt Lovecraft more faithfully at that time? It’s hard to say. Lovecraft is a tricky beast to translate cinematically. Regardless, the poster from Reynold Brown is phenomenal. Check out what the Grue-Crew has to say. Enjoy!

At the time of this writing, The Dunwich Horror is available to stream free with ads from PlutoTV and PPV from Amazon and Apple TV.  The film is also available as a Blu-ray from Arrow Video.

Recently saw The Dunwich Horror (1970) An AIP Pictures, H. P. Lovecraft adaptation, following on from ‘The Haunted Palace.’ Dean Stockwell is good at quiet menace as Wilbur Whateley, seeking to manifest the Old Ones. Director Daniel Haller uses quick edits and film negative effects to suggest wrongness with his budgetary limitations. A link between the colourful 1960’s gothics and the 1970’s Devil movies. Worth seeing if you get the chance

The Dunwich Horror

Daniel Haller’s THE DUNWICH HORROR (1970, Shudder) has been hailed by some as one of the most faithful screen adaptations of an H.P. Lovecraft story, but faithfulness does not necessarily result in a good movie. It sure doesn’t in this case. The script, whose collaborators include Curtis Hanson, adds a female lead to the story, with elder god worshipper Dean Stockwell hypnotizing graduate student Sandra Dee into serving as…well, something or other. It’s not clear whether she’s supposed to be the sacrifice that brings Yog-Sothoth into this realm or the vessel for a new generation of cult members. Maybe he’s hedging his bets and trying to have it both ways. Haller, who was art director for many of producer Roger Corman’s Poe adaptations, is the damnedest director. He’s great with nightmares, atmospheric landscapes and satanic rituals, but when he tries to shoot two people talking, it all goes flat with no clear sense of composition or framing. They’re just there, only there’s no there there. It doesn’t help that Stockwell, who’s supposed to have an hypnotic hold over Dee, seems hypnotized himself. Maybe he was still stoned from his hippie days. Maybe his dissatisfaction with the script resulted in his not even trying to act. But he just does nothing. By contrast, Dee at least has star presence. She’s supposed to be the victim throughout, but her passivity is so compelling you actually miss her when she’s not on screen. The film is primarily of note for containing an early performance from Talia Shire (billed as Talia Coppola) and featuring two members of the Corman stock company, Beach Dickerson and Barboura Morris. Morris is supposed to be a bitter farm woman, but at one point she turns to her dog, who’s being driven mad by the nearness of an otherworldly monster, and says, “What’s the matter, little lamb?” Her delivery has all the warmth she displayed in such under-rated gems as THE WASP WOMAN and BUCKET OF BLOOD (both 1959), and suddenly you’re reminded of how good low-budget horror films can be.
