Color Out of Space (2020)	comment	Color Out of Space is a 2020 Sci-Fi Horror film based on the short story The Colour Out of Space by H. P. Lovecraft. It is directed by Richard Stanley in his return to filmmaking after a twenty-year absence and stars Nicolas Cage, Joely Richardson, Madeleine Arthur, Elliot Knight, and Tommy Chong.Presented as a haunting recollection by hydrologist Ward Phillips (Knight), he tells of how his work once took him to Arkham County to aid in the planning of a new water reservoir. There he befriends the Gardner family, led by struggling farmer Nathan (Cage) and his wife Theresa (Richardson), a cancer survivor who is struggling to get her online brokerage business off the ground. Despite their woes, the Gardners are more or less happy until the night a meteor that emits a strangely-colored light crashes onto their property. Ward quickly notices dangerous changes in the local water supply, but his discoveries may come too late to help the Gardners, who must now struggle to survive against increasingly bizarre events that threaten to overwhelm their isolated farm.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_173909	type	Brainwashed and Crazy
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_173909	comment	Brainwashed and Crazy: By the end of the film, the Color's influence has driven the Gardners irrevocably insane. Benny is lured into willingly climbing into the well and a Fate Worse than Death, the fused creature that is Theresa and Jack attempts to devour Lavinia, Nathan becomes unhinged and - at one point - outright hostile, and Lavinia crosses the Despair Event Horizon, willingly embracing and being possessed by the Color and being disintegrated for it.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_1dfd19f9	comment	Papa Wolf: Zig-Zagged with Nathan. At first, driven insane by the Color's influence, he actively prevents Lavinia from escaping and attempts to feed her to the mutated and now-feral monster that was Theresa and Jack. He later appears to recover enough of his senses to kill the creature and save his daughter, and when he sees the Color emerging from the well close to Ward and Lavinia, his first reaction is to aim his shotgun at it. Unfortunately, this last act gets him killed.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_1f963842	comment	Bloodier and Gorier: Like many other Lovecraftian adaptations, this one is much more graphic and violent than the original story. The film adds conjunction of bodies of mother and son and their violent death. Lavinia carves symbols onto herself. Also, there is a scene where alpacas become like a creature from The Thing. None of this happened in the original story.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_20f689e9	type	Adaptational Villainy
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_20f689e9	comment	Adaptational Villainy: The Color in the story drains its victims at an almost leisurely pace and it is deliberately left vague as to whether the Color even possesses the sentience to be aware of what it is doing, or simply just operates on Blue-and-Orange Morality due to its utterly alien nature and is thus indifferent to lesser forms of life, as Cthulhu was originally described. The Color in the film appears much more aggressive, seemingly deliberately attacking, luring, and tormenting its prey. It goes so far as to directly influence the negative changes and deterioration of the Gardners' already shaky mental state, not to mention simply poisoning them with its essence polluting the well water. In the short story, when Nahum is under the Color's influence, it renders him feebleminded but harmless. His film counterpart Nathan, on the other hand, becomes fully Brainwashed and Crazy. The short story mentions the trees swaying on their own in the absence of wind. The film takes this much further with the trees being capable of grabbing people and killing them.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: The Gardners' wine cellar, briefly seen while they're having dinner early in the film, allows Ward to survive the Color's parting shot. Early in the film Benny finds a pair of old-fashioned pilot's goggles among his grandfather's belongings. When The Color emerges from the well in a burst of light, Benny puts on the goggles to shield his eyes... and gets vaporized anyway.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_2484396e	comment	Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Even before the Color begins working on his mind, it's blatantly obvious Nathan's not the best farmer and is just winging it. The best example is how he repeatedly insists that alpacas are great livestock even though they aren't in demand, while using them for their milk, rather than what's really valuable - their fleece. Subverted with Ezra, who's implied to be a bit nuts, but still has the best understanding of what's going on. Not that it saves him. Played Straight with Lavinia, who's only seen doing rituals during the bulk of the movie, with no visible effect. Once she uses the Necronomicon, she makes things worse.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: Lovecraft's fictional cities, Arkham, Dunwich, Kingsport and Innsmouth, all get mentioned as real locations in a local newscast. "Lavinia" happens to be the name of a character from another of H.P Lovecraft's books, The Dunwich Horror. Fittingly, Lavinia is into magic, being a Wiccan, and communes with an eldritch power — which leads to her death, just as her namesake did (although this Lavinia is never quite as, ahem, into it). Lavinia owns a mass-market paperback of the Necronomicon (a 1977 Bantam printing whose author is unknown and whose authenticity is contested at best and considered entirely a hoax at worst). The logo of the local news network resembles the tree-version of the Elder Sign. Ward wears a Miskatonic University shirt. Ezra owns a black cat named "G-Spot". Suffice to say this is not the first black cat with an offensive name in H.P. Lovecraft's stories.

Unfortunately, she decides to rely on a ritual from her copy of the Necronomicon for protection. While she stays sane longer than Nathan, it ultimately does nothing to help her, and it's implied it makes her final descent into madness worse.

It later infects the Gardners' alpacas, turning them into a grotesque amalgam like something out of The Thing (1982). Ironically, or maybe as a tribute to it, their wolf-dog Sam is also part of the flesh-mix of the creatures.

The Apocalyptic Log speculates that the Color is trying to reshape the local environment (which is just as alien and strange to the Color as the Color is to us) into something more familiar to the Color.

You learn Nathan is a struggling gardener and father with anger issues who's also The Alcoholic, stemming from his abusive father. Theresa is a highly stressed stock broker and haggard mother who's just recovered from breast cancer, and thus feels ugly because of it and comes off as somewhat insensitive to her husband and kids. Benny is a stoner who'd rather hang out with the resident hermit Ezra. Lavinia is a withdrawn goth who has taken up Wiccan arts as a form of coping, and Jack is even more withdrawn and hardly talks to his parents or siblings, only really connecting with their dog Sam. Despite these issues, it's clear at least in the beginning that they love each other. Which makes it even more heartbreaking when the Color's arrival disrupts their lives and ends up directly ruining their lives before directly consuming them.

Instead, it is an extraspectral color that is only perceived by humans when optical rods in their eyes that detect red and blue colors interact in specific circumstances to create the color magenta in their minds. Ergo, it is the natural choice to represent a color that is an alien phenomenon. This SciShow Psych Youtube video can explain it more fully.

Notably, her parents at various points hold her directly responsible for keeping her brothers out of trouble — which is understandable enough in Jack's case since he's much younger, but she and Benny are around the same age. This comes into even starker contrast later when Nathan puts Benny in charge of the household while the parents are gone — when most people with half a brain would know that Lavinia is significantly more intelligent and responsible than Benny is. Furthermore, Nathan's first response when seeing Lavinia doing something risky seems to be telling her to get back inside, while noticeably not admonishing his sons in the same way.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_9d67ad5c	type	Nuclear Mutant
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_9d67ad5c	comment	Nuclear Mutant: The Color's presence has a lot of overtones associated with nuclear radiation, implying that the Color might be giving off a form of radiation or is itself a sentient radioactive wavelength. It mutates the flora and fauna around it, creating unusual mutant strains before the land is reduced to an unrecognizable wasteland. It contaminates the air, the soil and the water, slowly driving people exposed to it insane and messes with all of the signals in the area. When a group of hunters finds the corpse of various animals melted together, Ward compares some of the injuries to radiation burns. After it fuses Theresa and Jack together, their skin turns grey, they become sensitive to sunlight and her hair starts to fall out, not unlike the symptoms of cancer and radiation therapy. When it flees at the end of the movie, it leaves a massive ash-heap where the farm used to be, Nathan reduced to a charred skeleton, almost as if a nuke was dropped on it.

Implied to be Benny's ultimate fate — He's last seen inside the well, being engulfed by the Color while screaming in terror. An insane Nathan later off-handedly remarks to Ward and Pierce that he "lives in the well now". This may also be Sam's fate, since we hear his whining coming from the well when Benny tries to save him. And based on the reappearance of the entire family after they're all been affected by the Color and killed at the film's climax, appearing as they did before being affected, it seems probable that even in death the Color's victims' consciousnesses don't escape its hold.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: "Ward Phillips" is an obvious reference to HoWard Phillips Lovecraft. He's even from Providence, Lovecraft's birthplace. He's seen reading a copy of Algernon Blackwood's The Willows, the author's favorite horror story. The fate of the alpaca herd strongly recalls that of the sled dogs in The Thing (1982). Considering that, it's probably not a coincidence the family dog Sam is played by a wolfdog, though in this case Sam is a Czech Vlcak or Saarloos instead of a low-content that can pass for a malamute. The Gardners' horse is named Comet. The game on the computer screen that is played when the meteor hits is Universe Sandbox 2. The phrase "No flesh shall be spared" hangs above Benny's computer. This is not only from the Biblical book of Mark, but is also the Arc Words for one of Richard Stanley's earliest films, Hardware (1990).

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e3847ee8	comment	Cigarette of Anxiety: In the end, after everything that has happened, the very traumatized Ward, who had steadfastly rejected Ezra's repeated offers of getting a hit from his blunt, quietly smokes a cigarette as he considers everything that happened to the Gardners and the horrible implications of it.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e4965307	type	Composite Character
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e4965307	comment	Composite Character: The nameless water surveyor from the short story and Ammi Pierce, the local man he interviews, are here merged into the single character of Ward Phillips. Likewise, the half-dozen anonymous lawmen who accompany Ammi on his final journey to the farm are rolled into the singular character of the town sheriff, whose name does happen to be Pierce. Ezra has a cat and hears strange noises coming from within his home, not unlike Mr. Delapoer, is an old eccentric living in a rural area who makes recordings of a strange alien presence, as does Henry Akely, and shares his name with a minor character in The Case of Charles Dexter Ward.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e8e56799	type	Blue-and-Orange Morality
Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e8e56799	comment	The Color in the story drains its victims at an almost leisurely pace and it is deliberately left vague as to whether the Color even possesses the sentience to be aware of what it is doing, or simply just operates on Blue-and-Orange Morality due to its utterly alien nature and is thus indifferent to lesser forms of life, as Cthulhu was originally described. The Color in the film appears much more aggressive, seemingly deliberately attacking, luring, and tormenting its prey. It goes so far as to directly influence the negative changes and deterioration of the Gardners' already shaky mental state, not to mention simply poisoning them with its essence polluting the well water.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_e9d8980	comment	Technicolor Magic: Magenta in this case, but it fulfills the role nonetheless. The titular Color is a Starfish Alien Energy Being that gives off a supernatural and otherworldly vibe, thanks to its incorporeal nature and the ability to corrupt whatever it touches.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_eb4086e3	comment	Big Creepy-Crawlies: The hybridization of Theresa and Jack plays with this trope, having a decidedly spider-like look and movement with its multiple limbs once it regains mobility and becomes aggressive.

In the latter case, he fails to go through with it. He does eventually kill them, but at that point, he no longer even recognizes them as his family.

Color Out of Space (2020) / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: When Nathan refers to liking "a good bourbon out of Texas", this might seem odd, as bourbon is traditionally distilled in Kentucky. However, later on in the film, he is shown drinking Garrison Brothers, which is indeed a high-end bourbon distilled in Texas.
