What did you think of Event Horizon?
Personally, I thought that movie completely kicked ass.
Discuss. |
I only saw it once but I liked it. I heard a directors cut is gonna be out sometime this year.
|
Sweet. I love the concept of the movie.
|
I really liked this. It scared me. Saw it on sci-fi channel so they probably cut it but it seemed plenty gory to me!
|
I thought that movie kicks ass!!! I love sam neil in horror, he has done several, IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS, THE OMEN, and DEAD CALM. would love to see him in something new!! sorry kinda got off the subject. :o
|
Excellent movie, and a Directors Cut would be awsome
|
Event Horizon was pretty sadistic for a big-budget release. I say that as a compliment. I liked the film a lot. The fast-cut torture subliminals were very creepy.
I like Lawrence Fishburne a lot but Sam Neill irritates me in Event Horizon for some reason. It seems like there's no clear-cut turning point in the film for him to become a villain. I'll be interested to see the director's cut. |
fuck yeah
Event Horizon is one of my favorite films of all time. personally i think it was one of the last good sci-fi movies to come out in theatre, along with gattica, screamers, 13th floor, etc. although it was significantly dark than the afformentioned movies. Fuck yeah, a directors cut would be awesome.
|
i didnt think i would like this movie but when i saw it i enjoyed it alot it was completely insane Sam Neil did a good job
|

WOW couldnt have said it better myself i freakin love sam neil ....this movie is also one of my favorites |
creepy, gory and good plot.....great movie
|
yeah this movie is pretty fucking good. I had to buy it when i saw it for 10$ somewhere.
For an extra treat try watching those super fast subliminal torture scenes in 1/16 or 1/32 speed on dvd. You get to see everything, pretty crazy. Quote:

Yes no2 im my most disturbing horror movies, no1 is "in the mouth of madness" also starring sam (awesome movie")
|
Event Horizon is the only movie where I have left the theater with an adrenaline rush. Loved it.
Gattaca is one of the greatest scifi films ever made. I enjoyed the 13th Floor as well, but that movie gets NO respect. |
Event Horizon
Have any of you horror fans out there seen this flick? I want to know your thoughts. Me personally, I think it is one of the scariest movies i have seen and my favorite space horror( next comes Jason X and Hellraiser: Bloodline)
|
It's pretty good. The ending disappointed me a little, but I really liked the premise, and it had some pretty cool, creepy imagery.
It's got nothin' on "space horror" compared to Alien and Aliens though. :-) |
It was fun, but the tagline should've been Hellraiser in Space.
|
Well, I saw it once at the cinema and hated it! I think I was a tad pissed that it was ripped off from so many other movies that I loved! Other than that it had a nice atmosphere and cinematography and well acted but I was disappointed. Might be interesting to see it again and see if my opinion changes.
|
yeah
i remember post about this like 4 months ago. but anyways fuck yeah i loved event horizon. great flick.
|
How many times do I have to say this: "Jason X was NOT a horror movie!"
It is an abmination unto the lords of Horror (a nod to Avenger)... I found no part of that movie to be "terrifying" or "horrifying"... However, it did make me want to use the bathroom... Profusely... Again and again and again... It should be removed from the list and replaced by an adequate Friday the Thirteenth Sequel... Cracka Please... *FADE OUT* |
Event Horizon was not bad. Some of the actors (like that jackass from bar wire and dead at 21) detracted a little from the movie, but overall it wasnt bad. I liked the premise, very "Doom (the game) on a spaceship".
|
Decent movie, it was really hyped up by me friends though so maybe that made it a little worse for me. Some really creepy parts though, especially the video of the lost space crew.

I saw about half of Event Horizon about 5 years ago. I don't remember much, though. I thought it was really gross, after I saw parts of it, then it scared me. :eek:
|
a damn fine film - love the fuzzy video of the hell dimension bit, and the airlock bit. yeah alot like hellraiser in space, but a damn fine flick non the less. i saw it at the cinema and it made me jump alot, then i had some acid the next day and people looked like they had no eyes. creepy.

Uh... If I'm not mistaken, the thread starter made a comment about Jason X taking second place in space "horror" films... Granted, I made no comment about Event Horizon, I merely felt this issue should be addressed again... I felt "otis" deserved a mild scolding for considering Jason X a horror movie... That is all... *FADE OUT* |
great movie

Event Horizon
Event Horizon is an excellent mix of SciFi and Horror, yet you very rarely see it brought up in discussions, it kind of slipped in under the radar when it was released. This is one movie that fans of the Horror genre should not miss. It stars Sam Neil, and in my opinion is his best role to date. This is one of those movies that practically begs for a sequel!
It is in my top 10 of all time favorite horror films. What do you think? |
i'm not saying this to be contrary but i clearly remember hating every second of this movie ..
I found the performances to be limp - and the story blah .. but i've seen a lot of other praise the film so once again, its just me. maybe i should watch it again. |
I was heard mix reviews of the movie.
Personally it fucking rocks. I love it and can't find anything wrong with it. |

I thought it was really scary.......and I don't scare easily!
I really liked this flic! :D I also loved the whole concept! :cool: |
I remember thinking I liked it, though I can't remember why.
Top 10 is a little fucking glorified, isn't it? |
wonder if we'll ever see a complete version?
|
i thought it was an interesting movie. i hated it the first time i saw it, flat out hated it. I dont mind it now, and i do find it interesting, but i couldnt help thinking "i could do MUCh better with this material"
Its good for a Paul Anderson movie, for what that is worth. Plus, it has some actors i love": Lawrence Fishburn Sam Neil Sean Pertwee Jason Issacs Okay, so thats about it. it had that blonde twit from Barb Wire and Dead at 21 in it, so that was a big pitfall... Its kind of the video game doom, only set on a spaceship and without any actual demons. |
It's responsible for restarting a lot of amature theories about dimensions and time travel ("It's all about wormholes, maan!"), but I always like these kinds of movies if they are reasonably acted and provide a few mechanical jolts along the way, which this one does.
Not sure about the "Shining in space!" headlines at the time, though. |
I never thought of it as the shining in space, but that isnt a bad analogy.
Man with troubled past is put in a claustrophobic situation. "people" start talking to him, he goes nuts, and tries to kill the others. |
I don't think top 10 is to glorified. There was one part that I thought the lines and the acting sucked (the part where Lawrence Fishburn is about to blow-up the ship and states something to the effect of "...I know...to Hell...). I thought that was rather lame, but it is still hard to argue that the film was a very good one. Everyones' top ten is different here and there.

its good but i didnt think it was anything special
