I was just curious about your impressions. I've not been terribly impressed by Carpenter in a while, but thought this one was quite good. Nice, tight, and with some interesting curves here and there. Gordon's film has his trademark explicitness, but I thought it was a good updating of the Lovecraft film, overall. I do think that Gordon has a genuine respect and admiration for HPL's work, and it comes through in much of what he does ... he doesn't always do literal adaptations, by any means, but I've grown quite fond of his work, and think it worth following.
But you're one of the few I've run into who has seen these, so, as I said, I was more just interested in your impressions of them.
