I am looking for a near complete list of all the movies made based on the Cthulhu mythos. Does anyone know where I can find one?

I wonder, do any of these feature any sort of Cthulhu figure? Not a deep one, depraved cultist or undead, but the Great Old One himself.
My family came over this weekend and I had my Horrorclix Cthulhu out on display. The two youngest present wanted to know all about him. Little Cadence asked how come his tummy was big and why he was bleeding (tentacles bursting out). I told her it was because he ate too much candy.
Anyway, their father asked what movie he's from and I told him 'Call of Cthulhu' but I doubt any movie I've seen has really shown a good representation of the sleeping one.

The recently released Call of Cthuhlu is very good. It was intentionally filmed to look like a 1920's silent film and of all the Lovecraft movies this captures the feel of the times, is accurate to the book, and features the big guy himself.

I'd add Hellboy to that list of mythos-related movies.

Cast a Deadly Spell had Big C. himself, crawling out of a fissure. A bit cheesy on the special effects (it was like 1990, I think), but it was a remarkable homage to quite a few of the Lovecraft elements, but put in with a twist that is VERY similar to the RPG. I'd swear whoever wrote the movie had been playing the RPG, with the combination of dark and humorous elements present in the movie. I haven't see a movie to rival its feel ever since.
Re-animator and I have no mouth but I must scream probably came closest to the atmosphere of the short stories...

The Haunted Palace
The Haunted Palace starring Vincent Price is a decent Lovecraft take on The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. -Directed by Roger Corman THP is Lovecraft disguised as Poe.
I've seen this movie and I liked it a lot.
