Description

We begin our coverage of the HBO original series Lovecraft Country. We discuss the themes of the show and the influence of H.P. Lovecraft on the genre of cosmic horror, exploring the insignificance of humanity in the vast universe. The complex legacy of H.P. Lovecraft, exploring his influence on modern horror and the inherent contradictions of his racist ideology juxtaposed with the themes of 'Lovecraft Country,' a series that reclaims Lovecraftian horror by centering Black narratives against the backdrop of Jim Crow America. We analyze the characters' journey through a dangerous landscape filled with both supernatural and human threats, highlighting the intersection of horror and social commentary.
