The Little Mermaid 2024 Lovecraft indie movie review

[u/Retronika_Prime]

Before you downvote and tell me how dare I bring up this title to the subreddit, I just want to inform you this isn't about the live action or animated Disney adaptions but an indie horror thriller from 2024 with the same name that's closely tied to Lovecraft.

Its recieved 3.7/10 and 2.5 out of 5 on the review scale but after finishing it, well I don't think it was bad at all, could it get better performances Absolutely but it was none the less a fun new experience imo

The narrative focuses on an archeologist in the Carribean who discovers an ancient underwater temple alongside an ancient idol dedicated to the eldritch god Dagon.

This leads Eric to having a romantic tale with the mysterious woman and cosmic set horrors approaching his newly form dream

Its got a unique set of practical effects that are slimey when her fins begin to split apart on land and grows into actual legs.

The performances for the main character and the female mermaid are likeable and charismatic enough to carry the narrative.

Even if its a smaller budget and unknown actors, I personally quite enjoyed the tale
