The visual effects are exactly the same as "Mandy", gorgeous and eye-catching. The rhythm of the story is relaxed, and it is placed in a contemporary context. The difficult conditions of communication in the story are restored by placing the family in the virgin forest, and introducing hydrologists and banning the friends in the original work as witnesses, which is reasonable and reasonable. . Special effects makeup is also loyal to the description in the original book, which is a satisfying book for fans who want to see the original movie.

So is he qualified as a horror movie? More than passing, it should be excellent. The actors' acting skills are all online, so there is no need to go into details. As a space science fiction horror theme, it needs to arouse the viewer's fear of the unknown. The film uses the description of the strange events in the family's daily life after the meteorite falls, the specific depiction of the animals affected by the meteorite, and the changes in the family's attitude and mood. The sequence of events is first to make the viewer feel curious and then scared. The climax of the episode-the hydrologist escapes from the pursuit of the stars-is even more icing on the cake, and in recent years there are only a few science fiction horror themes, some of which are more popular, and the excellent sci-fi horror like "The Color of the Stars" It's a pity that the film doesn't even have any heat.

Color Out of Space quotes

  • Nathan Gardner: [receiving Ward and Sheriff Pierce in his house] It's you. Toxologist.

    Ward: I'm the hydrologist, sir, yeah. Um, we came to make sure you're okay.

    Nathan Gardner: [touched] That's very kind of you. We've been having a hard time, you know? The car and telephone and Wi-Fi. Heh, life in the sticks.

  • [first lines]

    Ward: West of Arkham the hills rise wild and there are valleys with deep woods that no ax has ever cut. There are dark, narrow glens where the trees slope fantastically where thin brooklets trickle without ever having caught the glimpse of sunlight. When I went into the hills and vales to survey for the new reservoir, they told me the place was evil. They told me this in Arkham, and because that is a very old town, full of witch legends, I thought the evil must be something which grandams had whispered to children through centuries. Then I saw the dark westward tangle of glens and slopes for myself and ceased to wonder at anything besides its own elder mystery.
