      Plot


      Jeff Philips is working a dead end job at a call center. One day, Professor Lake, a member of a secret society, arrives at his apartment to tell him he is the last descendant of H. P. Lovecraft and must guard a relic to keep it from being reunited. If the pieces of the relic are united while the stars are in alignment, the sunken city of R'lyeh will rise from the sea and the demonic creature Cthulhu will be released upon an unsuspecting world.
      Shortly thereafter, squid-like "deep ones" attack and Jeff flees with his friend from work, Charlie, a comic book artist. Cult followers of Cthulhu pursue them to reunite the relic. They find an old high school acquaintance, Paul, an expert on the Cthulhu mythos, and enlist him in their cause. The three flee to the desert to seek Captain Olaf, a sailor who has first-hand experience with the cult. Eventually, the cult members attack them and Paul is taken by the cult, only to later escape and reunite with the others at Olaf's RV. Cthulhu's general, Star Spawn, and the deep ones corner them in the captain's RV. In their haste to flee, Jeff and Charlie leave the relic behind, and Star Spawn re-assembles it. This causes everyone but Jeff, as the last in the Lovecraft bloodline, excruciating pain. As Cthulhu prepares to escape his undersea prison, Jeff shoots some dynamite, destroying Star Spawn, separating the relic, and saving the world.
      Sometime later, we see Charlie doing a comic book signing for his new book based on his and Jeff's adventures. While he is telling a young and disbelieving comic fan that the story is true, Jeff arrives with an ancient map of more artifacts they must safeguard. They quickly leave for the Antarctic and arrive at the Mountains of Madness.
