‘Color Out of Space’, Nicolas Cage’s chromatic nightmare
The tireless American actor stars in a film based on the story by HP Lovecraft.
We have seen Nicolas Cage in more than 100 different films, but almost none of them are horror.
His filmography is so impressive that sometimes there are quite a few that go unnoticed, since it is not easy to keep up with the film industry and we often realize that we have a huge list of pending works.
That’s why we are here, to recommend one more and insist that you don’t let it pass you by.
And if the presence of Nicolas Cage is not enough, below we give you several reasons to give him a chance. Starting with its nature: an adaptation of Lovecraft’s story called ‘The Color of Outer Space’ (1927) .
Since the plot of the film cannot be said to be a surprise, how about we tell you what the original story is about and you let yourself go?
It turns out that, on the outskirts of Arkham, a meteorite falls near a reservoir and a local resident begins to tell others that a fearsome creature emerged from the impact and remains hidden in the area’s vicinity .
‘Color Out of Space’ takes its licenses, but we can say that the plot premise is practically identical. Don’t you feel like discovering it?
Why watch ‘Color Out of Space’
Nicolas Cage is the protagonist, do you need more reasons?
Unlike ‘Call of Cthulhu’ and ‘The Shadow Over Innsmouth’, it is not a Lovecraft story that has had too many adaptations.
The film is a marvel in visual terms. It does justice to its name and in it you will find a storm of colors.
Although the plot is somewhat predictable, the film generates a captivating atmosphere.
Where to watch ‘Color Out of Space’
‘Color Out of Space’ is included in the Prime Video catalog (Amazon).
