Р’льех (Лавкрафт) Ryleh (2003) (мультфильм) 720

Одинокому рыбаку в сети попадается старый сундук, содержимым которого оказывается запретное знание. Р’льех — вымышленный город, впервые упомянутый Говардом Филлипсом Лавкрафтом в рассказе «Зов Ктулху». С тех пор Р’льех стал неотъемлемой частью мифологии Лавкрафта и мифов Ктулху. French animated short, under six minutes Ryleh (2003) shows us a fisherman on rowboat whose net brings up a chest from the sea. As he attempts to open it, he receives a psychic shock. He brings the chest to his fisherman shack, which is an amazingly designed animated set of pure fantasy. He’s able to pry the chest open at last, & finds a grimoire within. As he peruses the eerie texts, light seeps in at the cracks of his shack; reality shifts. He opens the door & finds himself in a world of light & cathedral music. Through the light he strides, & finds his way into the darkness of the city of Ryleh. But in reality he’s still at sea, his body floating beside his boat, gazing blindly toward the bottom of the sea. Absolutely stunning!
