Yeah, maybe, But I'm not sure how it should be 'done right'. Lovecraft's literature thrived on what were almost abstract descriptions of his monsters, which gave (at least me) more of a feel for the being rather than a clear visual reprentation.

Basically, if they show any of Lovecraft's creations/ideas, they're almost bound to ruin it.

For what it's worth, I thought that trailer looked pretty cool though.
