Demonic type creatures live underground at Leffert's Corners. They like to come out on Christmas eve as our human hunters prepare a surprise from them at the church cemetery. Meanwhile some bad guy grave robbers are looking for buried money. The two clash, in what becomes a three way fight.You don't get to see the Creepshow looking creatures until near the end. Until then it was just arms reaching out. The scare factor was hit and miss. Short film with little to no character build up.6 stars because it didn't completely suck and was based on an H.P. Lovecraft short story. Part of a 30 Horror Film Collection.Parental Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.

In my opinion this film is really good filming of HP Lovecraft I really like most of the film. It includes a lot of effects and the underground creatures look really great here. SO, people who enjoyed Rreanimator will see cool Jeffrey Combs here. He plays a doctor and plays great.This Full Moon film is rather cool. The story includes some bandits seeking for money , a group of people fighting against terrific monsters who live under the ground of a church with priest who tries to help them.They want to destroy the world of immortal monsters who eat humans and live under one cemetery. They brought dynamite and are preparing to explode the church and cemetery when money-seeking bastards come and the mess starts.Great , although it is still far beyond Lovecraft's original style.www.myspace.com/neizvestnostlab

I watched this and enjoyed it. I am a Lovecraft fan and found that this was a reasonable rendition of Lovecraft's work. I thought the monsters where good and clearly defined, and not, as in a lot of cheap flicks, hidden from view to save on the cost of making an effort. When the family, re-emerged I was surprised and would have liked that bit to be a little longer. This piece (due to budget-I guess) was an ensemble piece and could even work on the stage if anyone wished to do a live version. Novelty theatre, now that would be good. I enjoyed the heroine, although the script suffered in this area for predictability. (Get out the how to book, on "How to" have a woman against man battle of wits and "Easy one liners for anyone" ) Even a book on "Your turn to have the weapon." But all in all a reasonable time was had by me. I would also like to further mention the wonderful Coombs' whose part could have been an inch or two bigger. A man who always manages to make me smile at his antics and cool one liners. So don't expect an Oscar or two but enjoy the ride and revel in the undead or dead or whoever they are.

I spent quite some time looking for this film, only because it stars Jeffrey Combs. Ever since the brilliant "Re-Animator", I suffer from an unhealthy obsession to track down all the flicks Combs ever starred in… This is a rather amusing production, loosely based on yet another H.P. Lovecraft tale. The plot involves small time crooks treasure-hunting for big loot that is supposedly hidden in a corpse buried in the Leffert Corners cemetery. Coincidentally, the inhabitants of this little town are fighting a bloody battle with carnivore demons on that same cemetery. The budget is obviously low and so most of the make-up effects look more cheesy than scary. There's practically no tension or humor, only a bit of entertaining demon action and fairly good acting performances by a decent B-movie cast. Besides Jeffrey Combs, who stars as the physically weak but sarcastic town's doctor, "Lurking Fear" also has Hellraiser's Ashley Lauren as a demon-butt-kicking babe. There also is a small role for Vincent Schiavelli! The name might not mean much to you but you'll surely recognize his face when you're familiar with B-movies.
