As in most of the yearly collections I have seen in this series there are some very good short films, some ok ones, and the occasional not so good. It is my tendency to best remember the good ones. My favorites, in no particular order include:
1 "Night-Gaunts" based on a short Lovecraft poem, has an excellent narration by Jake Glazier of commercial TV. For more information on the beings known as night-gaunts see "S. Petersen's Field Guide to Lovecraftian Horrors" The book would make an excellent gift to young biologists who need a direction for applying their budding curiosities.
2 "The Temple" is an excellent short about a doomed German U Boat.
3 "Terror" a good short about a fatal rock climbing expedition. And
4 "The Weaver" Hilariously creepy. This is a great continuation of the time enduring saga on the Vikings vs. the Arachnids. Be aware that parents may consider "The Weaver" as inappropriate material for their young spiderlings.
Some of the HPLHS film collections considered no longer available may be found on Amazon. For that reason some of my film reviews may be found posted there by "deep in the woods"
