So, 'Casting Call of Cthulhu' is this quirky 2008 comedy that takes a wild spin on Lovecraft's mythos and what it might look like behind the scenes of such a production. Picture a chaotic casting session where the director is just trying to find the right talent, but instead gets a parade of actors with bizarre, almost monstrous looks. It’s got this surreal mix of humor in the vein of Monty Python, layered with some sci-fi charm reminiscent of Doctor Who. The pacing's a bit erratic, but that kind of adds to its charm. And hey, the use of CGI for the Old One at the end is a nice touch, though it contrasts with the otherwise low-budget aesthetic. It’s distinctive for sure, just a curious blend of comedy and cosmic horror.
