Resumo: The American horror and science fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) was first published in Brazil in the 1960s. In the following decade, Brazilian cinema would appropriate his work for the first time, albeit timidly. In the new millennium, particularly in the 2010s, Lovecraft reached the peak of his popularity in the country, with many independent filmmakers appropriating his work. Based on this important cultural phenomenon, in this paper we will address such adaptations and the appropriations in Brazilian culture, as well as the allusions to Lovecraft’s stories in these films.

P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), escritor norte-americano de horror e ficção científica, foi publicado pela primeira vez no Brasil nos anos 1960. Na década seguinte, o cinema brasileiro se apropriaria de seu trabalho pela pri- meira vez, de forma tímida. No novo milênio, particularmente nos anos 2010, Lovecraft alcançou o pico de sua popularidade no país, com diversos cineastas independentes se apropriando de sua obra. Considerando esse fenômeno cultural significativo, abordaremos neste artigo adaptações, alusões à sua obra, bem como o diálogo de filmes brasileiros com as narrativas do escritor.PEPG COS-PUC-SP2022-05-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/54508Galaxia; No. 47 (2022): GaláxiaGALÁxIA.
