Reviews for The Colour Out of Space

[phenske · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Cool Air (Guy's body is dead, to preserve it he keeps his room cold and soaks himself in chemical baths. He's living through force of will. Then his body starts to deteriorate.)-The Call of Cthulhu (Awesome writing. Great famous lines, "Only poetry or madness could describe...", "Then the Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and all the earth would flame with a halocaust of exstacy and freedom.")-The Colour Out of Space ()-The Picture in the House (Would have been better but the accent was annoying.)-The Shadow Out of Time ()-The Terrible Old Man (Good but too short, not scary enough)-The Whisperer in Darkness (Kind of long for what you get. I read it before but didn't realize. Mi Go trick main character into coming to a farm in the hils. Then he finds face and hands of friend in chair.)
