The Curse (also known as The Farm) is a 1987 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 supervised the film's gore effects. Compared to previous adaptations of the Lovecraft story, this version stays closer to the source material.
The film was released theatrically in the United States as The Farm, and was years later released on video as The Curse. 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.
