I suddenly got interested in him and searched everywhere in vain for some of his stories (nowhere to be found where I live), so I read a few online. After that I played Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth, watched basically every Lovecraft movie ever made (they are depressingly few) and then bought an anthology book that I'm still reading.
Here is a website that I was shown to by a friend on the forum. It has all of Lovecraft's works for online reading.

I've only read 'The Dunwich Horror' and it was good. Haven't seen any movie directly based off of his works, but have heard of an upcoming movie called 'Age of Madness' that is based off of the Lovecraft Universe.
Do the Xenomorph from the Aliens film count as Lovecraft inspired?
