    When you got to the description of the monster, I thought of the “Id Monster” from the movie “Forbidden Planet”, which was also “big as a house”, invisible, left weird tracks and unstoppable. I suspect that someone working on the script for FP was familiar with Lovecraft. This would also make sense in-story if Morbius had read Lovecraft. A Lovecraftian horror is exactly what would have come from Morbius’ subconscious.

It comes over as such; the reading, counterpointed by the almost subliminal background sound… very, very good stuff, and clearly something that has been crafted together. Just the ticket for me, as an old fan of the works of the human disaster-area that was HPL!
