In the Mouth of Madness

Sutter Cane is a fictional character based on H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King. He writes horror novels. His final book is about the end of the world.

In the movie In the Mouth of Madness reality is effected by the writing of Sutter Cane. His following has become a cult and is changing the world. The protagonist is an investigator who begins to wonder if the fiction is influencing reality directly.

I have read H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King. I am familiar with the work of Sutter Cane accordingly. The idea that such an author is the high priest of a cult makes wonderful sense. Of course he is the writer of its unholy scripture.

The novels of Sutter Cane are weird and scary. They are about monsters and people turning into monsters. The protagonists are victims rather than heroes. The stories are about perception and reality. The supernatural is either madness or real… and is presumably real, driving people mad.

I write fiction. It is always weird and usually scary. It is about monsters who turn people into mindless thralls. The protagonists are heroes and normal people are their usual victims. The stories are about perception and reality but as the distinction between what is taught and what is actually witnessed. The supernatural is real.

I was inspired by the movie In the Mouth of Madness. I watched it just before midnight on May 15, 2025 and finished after midnight, May 16, 2025. I shall write my own fiction, turning what I liked into a survival horror adventure.
