If so, then perchance Richard Stanley’s 2020 adaptation of Lovecraft’s 1927 short story, The Colour Out Of Space, could be the exception to the rule. Lovecraft is unfilmable? Or could it be that the right mind mixed with the perfect team and a particular vision had to come together at the right time to make one? Some, like Stuart Gordon’s Re-Animator, are cult favorites. And this comes from the fact that the beasties of his creation are never described because they are unimaginable and the human mind cannot fathom them.īut, there have been countless films adapted or inspired by his works. Yep, but that last one causes problems.įor many a fan, they claim that his particular brand of weird tales is unfilmable. His works have been adapted for comics, music, radio, audio dramas, and movies.
Lovecraft, what can we say about the man that hasn’t already been said? Creator of Cthulhu.
This is exactly what Richard Stanley did perfectly in Color Out Of Space.
What makes something Lovecraftian is the universe not giving a shit about us.
