Lovecraftian Cosmic Horror Gem
Owned for 2 months by when reviewed.
I first viewed Color Out of Space on Shudder, gleeful to enjoy another of Nicolas Cage's recent movies (Mandy, Pig, Willy's Wonderland, etc.). The rich chromatic landscape and mind warping events of the movie felt very much like the Lovecraftian story it portrays. There are a few moments when humor plays a role that I did not expect or fully appreciate, although for many audiences it likely offers a reprieve from the sometimes graphic and disturbing scenes.
I picked this disc up from Best Buy a few months ago, finding a great sale price that made the 4K UHD/Blu-Ray combo too tempting to resist. I do not own a 4K UHD player at this point, although the Blu-Ray transfer is terrific. I stand by my love for physical media, and this version rises above the streaming option I first watched on Shudder. Special features are limited, but you will receive a making of featurette, deleted scenes, and a photo gallery. Would a SteelBook version be better? Maybe, but I am more than happy with this purchase.
