While two films inspired by Lovecraft’s works were produced before The Dunwich Horror landed in theaters in 1970, the Daniel Haller film is regarded by film historians to be the first true-to-life adaptation of the late horror author’s tales of terror.
The Haunted Palace (1963) and Die, Monster, Die (1965), while great horror films, were little more than loosely inspired by the Lovecraft works The Case of Charles Dexter Ward and The Colour Out of Space, respectively.
The Dunwich Horror followed the source material almost entirely, with some minor alterations surrounding a handful of its characters.
