What is it?
The 2019 American science fiction cosmic horror movie Color Out Of Space.
What is it about?
This is how The IMDb describes this movie:
A story of cosmic terror about The Gardners, a family who moves to a remote farmstead in rural New England to escape the hustle of the 21st century.
They are busy adapting to their new life when a meteorite crashes into their front yard.
The mysterious aerolite seems to melt into the earth, infecting both the land and the properties of space-time with a strange, otherworldly color.
To their horror, the Gardner family discover that this alien force is gradually mutating every life form that it touches…including them.
This is how Rotten Tomatoes describes this movie:
After a meteorite lands in the front yard of their farm, Nathan Gardner (Nicolas Cage) and his family find themselves battling a mutant extraterrestrial organism as it infects their minds and bodies, transforming their quiet rural life into a technicolor nightmare.
My Thoughts
I would not have known about this movie if it were not for a YouTube video called Color Out Of Space – Angry Movie Review by the YouTube channel AngryJoeShow:
This movie somewhat reminds me of a bit of a combination of the movies Annihilation, Mandy, and Hereditary.
This movie was slightly better than I had expected, and the main actors and actresses did a good job acting like a real family thanks to their good chemistry.
This movie did a good job playing around with colors and accelerating the craziness, as usual, Nicolas Cage did a good job as things got crazier.
Unfortunately, the movie ended without explaining much at all and left me with too many questions.
The end,
