Not as great as some of the others listed by the keepers but spotted them missing on the list & thought they might have some inspiration to them for ideas on other pulpy adventures or just making your adventures a bit more lively & theatrical.
The Mummy (from 1999 with Brendan Fraser)

tv series of the Lost World

and the Librarian trilogy of films, lightly pulp but pretty much a librarian in a warehouse 13 style of place going on all kinds of random adventures

Excellent additions. I forgot about The Lost World -- would be great inspiration for a high pulp adventure romp in the jungle!

A recent purchase that'd be good addition to this topic in the pulpy field with the Stunning Eldritch Tales from Pelgrane Press/Trail of Cthulhu might be a good addition of more places to seek out pulpy adventures with Cthulhu along with the Shadows over Filmland also for Trail of Cthulhu.
Here's the rough ideas on these adventures from the Pelgrane site:
** Devourers In the Mist: A rugged adventure tale in which the survival of island castaways is tested not only by the elements — but by the twisted shapes of half-seen, sadistic entities who haunt the atoll’s jungled interior!
** Shanghai Bullets: Guns-blazing danger portends and international intrigue unfurls in the city of conspiracy, the licentious, opium-infused Berlin of the East. In the shadow struggle between nations, no weapon is more fiercely coveted than the star mirror. It brings blood-draining death from beyond the stars!
** Death Laughs Last : When philanthropist and gadabout Addison Bright is found bizarrely murdered in his own New York mansion, only a team of doughty investigators can protect his reputation—and the sanity of mankind—from the awful truths lurking in his tragically colorful past.
** Dimension Y : A scientific experiment yields the promise of a glimpse into an adjoining reality, a repository of man’s dreams and memories. But when the heroes peer through this window… they find cosmic horror peering back at them!

Found a fun pulp Cthulhu game, there's a few other Cthulhu games they do in addition to other actual plays. Enjoy as this one gets rather wild.

Just discovered this podcast thanks to Ken & Robin Talk about Stuff. Taking a not so odd mix of Cthulhu & our favorite crew of mystery solvers with the video below with the pleasantly nicely written Mystery Incorporated series of Scooby Doo.
So here's the One Shot Archives of Peaches & Hot Sauce with the Pooch on the Doorstep.

Also here's the Mystery Incorporated show meeting up with HPL in one of the many episodes (Shrieking Madness). For some reason the youtube links aren't putting the video in the forum post.
