Review – The Tomb

After years of watching Stuart Gordon movies, I’ve developed the ability to forgive a little creative cinematic license taken with H.P. Lovecraft’s short stories. This, however, flatly has nothing to do with “The Tomb” or anything else Lovecraft ever wrote. Instead, by six minutes into the picture it’s more than apparent that what we’re getting here is a bargain basement Saw knock-off. Putting Lovecraft’s name on the box is an act of fraud not excused in the slightest by tossing the author’s name in here and there. To the rich uncle who keeps giving Ulli Lommel money to make movies: please for the love of humanity stop. Wish I’d skipped it
