Call of Cthulhu?Its ace but very much a product of its time. Lovecraft dwells a little to much on ichor though sometimes.

ahahathat is so poorly acted and low-budgety that it looks like a piss-take but it isn't :)

well kindabut good literature is always going to be good literature... shakespeare par example.
i've only read the call of cthulhu and i intend to read some more, cause it was interesting. but i suppose it's hard to be amazed by something like sci fi nowadays since we're so saturated with it.
i read journey to the centre of the eart a few weeks ago as inspiration for my story/storyboard/animation which you can read here:http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=71771196&blogID=356249242 if ya want) which is kinda the same era, and i thought it was great except some of the scientific detail sometimes got a bit self-indulgent, but right up unil he got rescued from being lost it was great, but after that it was a bit silly and the end was kinda unsatisfactory. though the misogyny and racism was pretty amusing :)
