**_A solid adaptation, albeit with a bit too much alpaca-based comedy_** >_This was no fruit of such worlds and suns as shine on the telescopes and photographic plates of our observatories. This was no breath from the skies whose motions and dimensions our astronomers measure or deem too vast to measure. It was just a colour out of space – a frightful messenger from unformed realms of infinity ...

Combining the unholy trio of Nicolas Cage, H.P. Lovecraft and Richard Stanley seems like insane brilliance on paper, which is why it’s so disappointing that ‘Color Out of Space’, despite some interesting themes and reverence to alpacas, is a bit of a slog. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-color-out-of-space-a-messy-fusion-of-sci-fi-horror...

Trippy movie for sure, but having never read anything from H.P. Lovecraft, probably don't appreciate it compared to most but visually interesting and also bizarre, felt like Close Encounters of the Third Kind meets Donnie Darko.

_Colour Out of Space_ was one of the biggest joys that 2019 cinema brought me. I was genuinely thrilled by it from about fifteen minutes in right up until the credits rolled. Not to mention for several days afterwards. _Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite._

Coupled with lazy direction that produces some of the most unintentionally funny moments I've ever seen in a "thriller", shallow characters that seemingly have no motivation for their actions beyond the tro...

" _**The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown**_ " -H.P.Lovecraft It is very difficult to make a film adaptation of any H.P.Lovecraft short story. When an author aims to paint an image of the Unknown through poetic mastery it makes the task immensely difficult for any Director who refuses to alter the story itself. It ...

This movie is slow paced, builds up action for the ending which is worth the watch. Brilliant sci fi film based on Lovecraftian tale.

The "Gardner" family hope to escape the rat-race by moving to a rural New England farm where they can settle and enjoy the peace and quiet. Ha, not for long though. A giant meteorite crash lands into their garden and before long it seems to be exuding a menacing glow that is corrupting all it touches. "Nathan" (Nicolas Cage) and "Theresa" (Joely Richardson) are initially more perplexed than anythi...
