the secret priests would take great Cthulhu from His tomb to revive His subjects and resume His rule of earth....Then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy. Then the liberated Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth would flame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom.

Right on! The Call of Cthulhu Role-Playing Game was the most elegantly crafted book of RPG rules ever -- at least by the 6th edition or so. Presenting as it did the fictional world of 1930's writer H.P. Lovecraft, and his literary descendents, presenting a world of hideous 100-foot-high monsters and Great Old Ones and many other things kept hidden from our fragile veil of the human world, or in the distant past, but still accessible to those in the know (who slowly go insane i.e. unable to function in the shallow "human" world once they realize the greater realities).
The game raised quite a lot of interesting philosophical issues when I was 15 or 20, as well as making Satanic lore look wussy. Like dread Ghatanothoa, who if you gaze upon him will turn your whole skin into hard leather, immobilizing you for the rest of your life unable even to scream. Or Abhoth, Source of All Uncleanness, which no amount of alcohol-gel will cleanse from your hands (you turn into it, in fact). Cthonians, Gugs, Fungi from Yuggoth, way cool!
CTHULHU IN '08! THIS TIME, WHY SETTLE FOR THE *LESSER* OF TWO EVILS?

In order: 1) Scream. 2) Fill my pants. 3) Go insane. 4) Die. 5) Get soul eaten. Sounds awesome.

Sure, wake him up and put him in charge. Actually, I don'r care if it's him or Marduk, so long as they devour all those internet forum trolls.
