Captures the weird otherness of the book nicely, builds slowly, if anything could have been slower, but films can only be so long. Cage is restrained in the main, but moments of madness shine through. Whole cast is excellent really. Throughly enjoyable adaptation

Fmovies: TLDR: The Color out of Space is a wild, heady, over-the-top, and terrifically satisfying movie. While flawed, it works almost as much because of its flaws as in spite of them.

Adapting Lovecraft to film tends to require a certain amount of interpretive dance. His stories don't always have much dialogue and are often missing the descriptive beats that are now virtually an inviolable law in prose storytelling.

That said, every Lovecraft fan has a good idea what should be present in a film adaption, even if he's not sure what needs to be added.

Richard Stanley evidently has some very good ideas of what to add, and which actors might be qualified to carry it off.

While sticking to the fundamentals and broad outlines of the original short story, he supplies his movie with gorgeous visuals and sounds, relatable characters, and enough crazy behavior to move his audience from the picture of an idyllic Alpaca ranch (yes, the main characters actually raise alpacas) to a hellish landscape of madness, deformity, and desolation.

I've seen my share of Lovecraft adaptations. I'm thinking this one might be the best. Unlike the others, it doesn't forget what makes Lovecraft interesting, while still offering its audience (including the people who don't know Lovecraft from Lieber) an exciting and atmospheric experience.

I saw Color on Wednesday the 22nd. While not a laugh-out-loud kind of guy myself, plenty of people there were, and showed it. It is, at times, a very funny movie. Until it's not. Then the theater got very quiet. There were reasons.

So is Nicholas Cage as over-the-top in this movie as you'd expect him to be? Sure, more or less, at least some of the time. But I can't help feeling he found a very good place to do it.

The Color out of Space is a wonderful movie--uneven, mesmerizing, surprising, beautiful, and a really great time. If you like horror (or Lovecraft or Cage or Stanley), you should definitely see it--now, while it's on the big screen, sounding and looking as large as a Lovecraftian horror should.

This movie is just baffling decision after baffling decision. An absurd script, horrendous over acting, and a plot that completely abandons what makes the original story so eerie and mysterious.

What an absolute waste of amazing source material.

Color Out of Space fmovies. Color Out of Space is one of the darkest, most sadistic, goriest, and creepiest films I've seen, and that's why it's one of the best horror films ever. Any adaptation of a story by HP Lovecraft is prime material for horror and this one takes the cake. While Stephen King gets all the attention, Lovecraft practically invented horror, and he now needs as many adaptations as he can get. There would be no King without Lovecraft. Nicolas Cage chews the scenery in the best possible way; either he's a maniac or the best method actor possible, we'll never know, but it's brilliant. The rest of the cast perfectly exemplify anxiety, tension and give us the creeps for two straight hours. It oozes creepiness from top to bottom, start to finish, with the most cringe-inducing sights and sounds I've heard in a horror movie. It's the perfect horrific atmosphere and compelling descent into madness. If The Thing had a baby with Annihilation, this would be it, in all it's deformed glory. Richard Stanley seemingly appeared out of nowhere, after a long absence apparently, and brings us this gem. If that's not a great comeback, I don't know what is. He says he's planning to make a trilogy of Lovecraft films, and I just bought my ticket years in advance to see them. Richard Stanley, after directing the infamous Island of Dr. Moreau, then landing in some filmmaking purgatory, shows everyone how it's done, giving us the gold standard for recent horror movies. This film pretty much feels like a big slap in the face to all the stupid ones coming out. Everyone, take notice from Stanley, he's back on top in my book. Mark this one next to The Lighthouse, Hansel & Gretel, and The Witch. Looking forward to more.

What's starts out as a strong and interesting movie. Slowly turns into something where nobody knows what next to do - especially the director.

Considering how difficult the source material must have been to translate to a visual medium, they really knocked it out the park. Gruesome, trippy visuals and great performances. Worth a watch if you're a fan of cosmic horror
