The Production
Mountains of Madness is an animated web-series based on H.P. Lovecraft’s Novella “At the Mountains of Madness”.
Lovecraft has been cited as an inspiration to such creators as Guillermo del Toro, John Carpenter, Mike Mignola, and many more. Author Stephen King called Lovecraft "the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale." This novella is considered one of Lovecraft's greatest and most cherished works, but it has never before been realized cinematically.
Innovativ Media and Sloan Motion Pictures have developed the series and have produced the initial three episodes of what is expected to be a total production of 30 episodes.
