I think words may have escaped this blogger. Designer Maximo Riera call this an Octopus Chair from their Animal Chair range. The Octopus Chair is the first in the collection. It’s supposed to be biologically accurate and it looks like it is. It’s supposed to represent the animal’s natural vitality. Maybe it does… but this […]

Cthulhu in the shower: Great Old Spice
You’re not fed up of Old Spice videos yet? Look at me? No? Good. There’s just one more you have to watch. That’s right; Cthulhu fresh from the shower and here to sell you Great Old Spice. Clearly this is a must watch but just make that sanity check, will you? What do you think? […]
The Call of Cthulhu in Under 2 Minutes
This is one awesome video. If you ever need a summary of HP Lovecraft’s majestic Call of Cthulhu then why not ask a Valley Girl for help. You can call it her school project. When she’s finished then you can say it wasn’t a school project at all. Perhaps she’ll go insane from grief. Burn! […]
The Fuller Memorandum review
The Fuller Memorandum is the third book in Charles Stross’s Laundry Files series. I don’t know when the series became known as the Laundry Files, but as our hero works for the Laundry and I sometimes describe the series as the X-Files meets Lovecraft I guess the “Files” extra works. Of course, that description is […]

The Adventures of Lil Cthulhu (sanity not protected).
I think my favourite line in this 2009 animation about Lil Cthulhu is this; “Uh-oh! Lil Cthulhu is hungry after his long nap. What does he do? He eats his followers! They love Cthulhu and want to be eaten. Their souls make his tummy happy.” Worst joke? That the Crawling Chaos is so-called because the […]
Dice bring Steve Jackson and Cthulhu together in one video
Okay, so based on this video evidence it seems unlikely that Steve Jackson is Cthulhu. The canny will notice that John Kovalic is missing, despite being one of the game’s brains, so perhaps Dork Tower’s Kovalic is also the Great One. This video is called “Cthulhu Dice Unboxing” but it’s more than that. It’s also […]
