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

_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._

" _**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 was truly an incomprehensible mystery which ultimately ends and I wondered what was it that I had just watched? Then I realized I felt the same way when I read his short story years ago. I loved both. It was intriguing, eerie, unpredictable and disturbing. Watch it for the art of the images as well as for the beauty behind the complexity of the writer who has a level of Linguistic Intelligence very few will ever understand. Including myself. Being able to make someone feel disturbed without using any violence or excess of violence is what I feel is pure Horror. Which is what H.P. Lovecraft believed and excelled at. That being said the Director did an amazing work of art. It was beautiful to look at, the images were fantastic and it gets a solid 8.5/10 from me. _Parental Advisory_: **16+** This is not a film for children or even young teenagers. It has no violence however it displays gore and blood in several scenes to a 7/10 intensity at its peak. It can create a very eerie and edgy ambience throughout the second half that creeps up on you and before you know it you might feel very uncomfortable. -_**eQuilibrium**_
