Lovecraft Country (2020)

it begins covering an interesting and so “trending” subject : racism & discrimination. I’ve read all Lovecraft’s books and Edgard Alan Poe’s writtings etc. and played a long time the Classic RPG “Chtulhu”. So was expecting something in a realm of wierd and unsetteling.
Unfortunately, Ep. 2 it slides slowly but surely on the “demon/god/jesus” stuff and - for me -totally distroys the Lovecraft universe by doing so.
The actors and the background subject of racism are good, but for the creepy “Lovecraft” universe, well… disappointed…
A bit like if ou took a good Lords of the ring and said “God” or the “Devil” created the ring and you’ve got to be a priest to carry it… It distroys the universe Tolkien has created…
