Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Whisperer in Darkness is a 2011 science fiction film based on the 1931 novella by H. P. Lovecraft.It was produced by Sean Branney, Andrew Leman, and David Robertson and distributed by the HP Lovecraft Historical Society. As per HPLHS's The Call of Cthulhu, it uses the Mythoscope blend of vintage and modern filming techniques to produce the look of a 1930s-era Universal Horror film, though given the era this one is a talkie instead of a silent film. | |

Adaptational Villainy: In the story, the Mi-Go are certainly not "friendly", but they're largely disinterested in humanity and only aggressive in covering their tracks. In the film, they're more openly malevolent. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
The Whisperer in Darkness / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The movie depicts the events of the short story but adds a 'third act'. Where the book ends with Wilmarth's flight from Akeley's farm and back home, the movie goes on to have him thwart a ritual preceding an Alien Invasion by the Mi-Go, and fight them in a mid-air combat scene. Since the ending is no less Lovecraftian for it, general consensus is that the movie is, as per HPLHS's silent movie The Call of Cthulhu, a loyal adaptation of the Cthulhu Mythos to film. | |
