What happens

The Curse is a 1987 Italian–American science fiction horror film directed by David Keith in his directorial debut, and starring Wil Wheaton, Claude Akins, Cooper Huckabee, Malcolm Danare, John Schneider and Amy Wheaton. Based on the short story "The Colour Out of Space" by H. P. Lovecraft, it tells about a meteorite that crashes into a farming community in Tennessee, and infects the land and its residents. Italian genre veteran Lucio Fulci was billed as an associate producer, and directed some scenes uncredited. Trans World Entertainment and its successor company Epic Pictures used the Curse name for three more Italian-made horror films that they distributed in the U.S., although they were narratively unrelated.
