Can Cthulhu's mind control target allied monsters such as Ratkins, or move a Poltergeist through walls?

The designer ruled on both points on BGG.

No to both. Mind control targets enemies such as aggressive heroes and bosses, not allies such as monsters or NPCs, so Ratkins do not qualify. A mind-controlled Poltergeist does not move through walls, even though that would be thematic.
