Lovecraft Mythos - Cosmic Horror
H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.

I feel that the Lovecraft is not the same than Lovecraft work. RPG, comics, and other stuff that get inspired by Lovecraft rarely depict the impossible to understand unknown. They are more related with an otherness threat. If if those are unbelievable, they are not unconcievable. Moreover, Lovecraft rarely depict antagonists.
I think that the mainstream adaptation of Lovecraft, adapt the mainstream Lovecraft culture.
I feel you; I miss the sens of deep otherness. I think it's may be a subversion and make it a tolerant depiction.
