Arkham, 1975: Jonathan Davis' father has disappeared. His tracks lead to Germany, to the Swabian-Franconian Forest where he was stationed after the Second World War. Jonathan sets out to find him and bring him home, but deep in the woods he discovers a dark mystery from the past. Based on H.P. Lovecraft's short novel "The Colour Out of Space".
brutashell review - 'Filmed in black and white and primarily spoken in German, it is obvious that Die Farbe did not have a huge budget to work with. Effects are minimal and the cast is utterly unknown. I should point out that these are all good things, and work very much in the film's favour. There is no CGI to rely on, no name actors to carry it. Rather, the filmmakers do the unthinkable: they create a genuine atmosphere of unimaginable dread and unspeakable horror, using shadow, suggestion and rare splashes of that Nameless colour in a few select frames. In short, they did a damn good job. Die Farbe is subtle in its mounting horror, nurturing a dark dread deep in your bowels with every shot. All of the best and most stomach-turningly distressing films I’ve ever seen have come out of Germany: M, The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari, The White Ribbon, and now this one. Leave it to the Germans. We know how to gross you out on the deepest psychological levels.
Lovecraft worshippers and devotees of German Expressionism alike, take heed: seek out and view this film at your earliest possible convenience. It’s a dark, noisome little gem that will squirm into your subconscious and lay its eggs in your sanity. Hey, not everyone gets the honour of being a host organism for the Elder Gods, you know.'
刻板印象里的“文艺片”。兄弟俩小演员要是一个人演或许能提个最佳男主，但俩人都挺不错。
可以是关于毒品隐喻的黑暗寓言故事，也可以是父权暴力下的选择与继承，还可以再展开一些讲，做个迷你剧什么的可能更好一些。惊艳的是关于怪物的设计，披着被捕食者的人皮面孔，看到的一瞬间哇喔。
导演完全没有把故事拍好，就当做是当地旅游环境宣传片好了
惊悚没多惊，反正鬼佬就是创造个恶心的人物就行了。
两星半吧，大概我看得是个阉割版，血腥程度不够。似乎想表达很多：童年阴影（性侵）校园霸凌、吸毒的社会问题、乡村传说等等，节奏缓慢，总觉得没有高潮。
这么出色的影像质感，这么特别的故事氛围，这么迷人的恐怖形象和设定，却没有同规格的紧张感、压迫感和悬疑感相衬，太可惜了点。影像层面的质量明明这么好了，却让人感受不到什么张力，给人以“恐怖了，但没完全恐怖”的隐秘的膈应感。最让我可惜的是，明明怪物带有克苏鲁色彩的民俗神话设定值得深挖，在影片中却被走流程式地略过了？！
大处有视野小处见细节 段子一箩筐 多加一星疫情的独特共鸣
可惜了小男孩这么优秀的演技以及影片这么出色的美术设计。
氛围感很好，阴冷潮湿的美国小镇，古怪的家庭，变异的人类，慢慢烘托的节奏感，还是挺有看点的，只是结尾部分太草率了，整体的表达也是有的，还可以，可以一看。
俄勒冈洲小镇美丽的山区风光一星，优秀的摄像和小演员一星。
大处有视野小处见细节 段子一箩筐 多加一星疫情的独特共鸣
破败的矿坑，阴郁的天气，灰色的迷雾，远古的大神，糟糕的剧本，愚蠢的人类，父权的没落
一直没搞清楚怪物到底是啥，但杀人手段挺恶心的
美国西北挺适合北欧滤镜 又见闪灵双峰暮光之城同款迷雾冷山森林
在烂和还行的边缘试探的惊悚片吧……导演和团队有用心去做……奈何这鹿魔的设定对于鹿是七彩神鹿寓意而美好动物，无法代入。女主和男孩对父亲复杂情感这块……也一般吧。很努力的片子，well，勉勉强强。
只是剧情也太散了，太尴尬了，空架子。
个人评分5分（主观影评，不喜勿喷）
除了北欧风冷峻的滤镜，这部电影到底意义何在……
21/12/31：怪兽的造型不算太糟 除此以外
整个电影的冷色调质感是真满分，可惜节奏只能让人想昏昏欲睡
