“Color Out Of Space” (*1/2 out of four) was an outlandish sci/fi saga about a meteorite which catastrophically strikes a small-town and wreaks havoc amongst a farmland family (Nicolas Cage, Joely Richardson, and others) and soon threatens to (yawn) destroy mankind. Absurd adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s story actually owes a lot more to the 1987 long-forgotten horror thriller “The Curse” and also “Invasion Of The Body Snatchers.” Some impressive special effects in film’s finale are film’s only real asset. Director Richard Stanley tries for some grandeur at film’s ending but the preceding two hours simply don’t merit it.
