Movie Reviews of Event Horizon (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: One of the Best Sci-Fi Horror Movies
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great horror film. Despite the occasional scene of bad acting, it still doesn't manage to break the overall dark and menacing atmosphere of the movie. While still featuring some scenes with gore in it for those that enjoy that stuff, it doesn't rely heavily on gore and "jumpy" scenes to get its scares. It ends on a unsettling note, leaving you with a lot of questions about "what if".
Summary of Event Horizon (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
A search and rescue space mission leads to a realm of unimaginable terror in this electrifying mix of action and edge of your seat suspense.System Requirements:Running Time: 97 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: SCI-FI/FANTASY Rating: R UPC: 097360313246 Manufacturer No: 031324Drawing from Andrei Tarkovsky's heady science fiction meditation Solaris by way of Alien and Hellraiser, this visually splendid but pulpy piece of science fiction schlock concerns a mission in the year 2047 to investigate the experimental American spaceship Event Horizon, which disappeared seven years previously and suddenly, out of nowhere, reappeared in the orbit of Neptune. Laurence Fishburne stars as mission commander Captain Miller and Sam Neill is Dr. Weir, the scientist who designed the mystery ship. Miller's T-shirt- and army-green-clad crew of smart-talking pros finds a ship dead and deserted, but further investigations turn up blood, corpses, dismembered body parts, and a decidedly unearthly presence. It turns out that the ship is really a space-age haunted house where spooky (and obviously impossible) visions lure each of the crew members into situations they should know better than to enter. The ship is gorgeously designed, borrowing from the dark, organic look of Alien and adding the menacing touch of teeth sprouting from bulwark doors and clawlike spikes inexplicably shooting out of the engine room floor. Unfortunately the film is not nearly as inventive as the production design--it turns into a woefully inconsistent psychic monster movie that sacrifices mood for tepid shocks--but the special effects are topnotch, and ultimately the movie has a trashy B movie charm about it. --Sean Axmaker
