A Lovecraft film adaptation of the short story The Colour Out of Space. With a Lovecraft film you know immediately what to expect, atmosphere and tension and that is what Die Farbe gives us.

Lovecraft adaptations are difficult. It's not about guts and. There is a good build up of tension. Huan Vu succeededs with a minimal budget to drag the viewer into the mystery. Die Farbe is one of the best Lovecraft adaptations.
