While it cannot match the unholy tension of the game, Kot and Kowalski have made an eerie, memorable adaptation/prequel that mines its (fabulous) setting for tension without explaining too much or trying to make the series‘ cosmic horror any more approachable. This is weird, violent, and grotesque — in other words, a surprisingly strong adaptation to one of the all-time great video games.
