Dagon (2001) by Stuart Gordon adapts Lovecraft’s The Shadow Over Innsmouth and follows a stranded American traveler who, after a shipwreck off a foggy coast, is pulled into a ruined seaside town ruled by a fanatical cult of Deep Ones. Trapped in damp tunnels and decaying harbors, he discovers a submerged city and monstrous hybrids that blur the line between human and oceanic horror. With practical effects and a claustrophobic atmosphere, the film delivers a bleak, relentless nightmare of faith, mutation, and forbidden knowledge.
