''The Curse'' (also known as ''The Farm'') is a 1987 American horror film adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft's ''The Colour Out of Space'' directed by David Keith. Famed Italian director ''Lucio Fulci'' was listed as a co-producer in the credits, and is said to have supervised the special gore effects in the film. Compared to previous adaptations of the Lovecraft story, this version stays closer to the source material. Three other Euro-horror "sequels" were distributed on video titled ''Curse II: The Bite'' (1989), ''Curse III: Blood Sacrifice'' (1991), and ''Curse IV: The Ultimate Sacrifice'' (1993); although all four films are completely unrelated to each other except through title. ==Plot== A meteorite lands on the farmland property of Nathan Crane (Claude Akins) in Tellico Plains, Tennessee. Local physician Alan Forbes (Cooper Huckabee) is unable to explain why the rock keeps shrinking. He is dissuaded from contacting the authorities by Charlie Davidson (Steve Carlisle), a realtor who does not want the new arrival to discourage the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) from establishing a new reservoir in the area. As the rock shrinks away to nothing, a glowing color seeps out and into the ground. Within a few weeks, the farm's crops bloom but are soon discovered to be inedible. Shortly after, the local animals, as well as Nathan's wife, begin to go mad and a previously unknown element is discovered in the property's well. Soon Nathan and his son Cyrus (Malcolm Danare) are also driven insane and begin terrorizing those who come near, including Nathan's other children, Zack (Wil Wheaton) and Alice (Amy Wheaton). Ultimately, they are saved by TVA representative Carl Willis (John Schneider) and the house collapses into the ground. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Curse (1987 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
