Entertainment Reviews:
This is one of those self- referential horror movies that gets buried alive in an avalanche of clever special effects and an incredible imploding plot.

Confusing, weird, and not very involving.

...Nightmarish....Carpenter's best movie in years. -- Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly
A stylized collection of well-timed shockers, helped along by the contributions of its capable cast.

[The] movie has a lot to say about the dangers of cultural obsession and what happens when you give yourself over to the creators you idolize.

In the Mouth of Madness is another marvelous work of art by John Carpenter, albeit a lesser known work.

Product Description:
IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS is John Carpenter's foray into the world of H.P. Lovecraft and surreal horror. An insurance investigator (Sam Neill) is sent to find a missing author, Sutter Cane (Jurgen Prochnow). As he comes closer to finding the author, things start to change around him, and soon nothing is what it seems. Madness seems to be the normal state of things, while reason and sanity have no place in this new world created by the mind of Sutter Cane. Carpenter plays with changing perspective, making the audience aware thay they too are part of the story, and maybe, just maybe, this is not just make believe. The story is very ambitious in its attempt to put a whammy on the viewer's imagination, but the direction is steady and thoughtful enough to pull it off. Sam Neill is superb in the lead role of the only sane man left on Earth, incredulous to the destruction of reality as he knows it. It is his controlled performance that makes the bizarre events in the film threatening and scary. Jurgen Prochnow is deeply creepy as author and madman Sutter Cane, who's imagination is so vivid it is spilling out of his head into the real world. John Carpenter is known for his scary movies, and he does not fail to deliver with IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS.
