Customer Reviews of Event Horizon (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Rent it Think [[ASIN:B00005ATQJ The Shining]] set in space, with touches of [[ASIN:B00011V8IQ Alien (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)]] and [[ASIN:6305972001 Hellraiser]]. That would be the film but not as good as any of them. The movie's concept is great and could have been a scary film but drops the ball. The movie was somewhat predictable and the cgi wasn't that great. If the space ships were cgi, then the cgi for the items floating around in the space ships weren't the greatest. The cinematography was excellent but again, the story falls short and almost close to boring. As it stands, the best horror movies out there are: <
>[[ASIN:6305972001 Hellraiser]], [[ASIN:B0000524CY The Exorcist (The Version You've Never Seen)]], [[ASIN:B0000399W9 The Exorcist 3]], [[ASIN:B0002CHK1S The Thing (Collector's Edition)]], [[ASIN:B000AMWIVM Saw - Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)]], [[ASIN:B00008YOD2 Saw II - Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)]] and [[ASIN:B000LC3ID8 Saw III (Unrated Widescreen Edition)]].
Efficient horror/sci-fi crossover
Formulaic sci-fi shocker that while not being as good as, say, Aliens, still manages to pack a punch. The plot seems to be made up of elements of Aliens 2 and Sphere (and Solaris); you'll see what I mean when you watch the movie. Laurence Fishburne wheels out his Matrix role to play the big, butch captain of the spaceship, while Sean Pertwee (son of Dr. Who Mk. III actor John Pertwee, fact fans, he even has the same voice), Kathleen Quinlan and the ubiquitous Sam Neill provide support. The acting is generally more efficient than inspired.

>There's more bloodshed in this than many other sci-fi flicks, and fans of the horror genre may find stuff here to get their teeth into. The effects are pretty good - extra credits for the powerful sound FX - but at times they come close to overshadowing everything else (sound familiar?).
<
>A typical 4-star movie, then.
Could've been great.
This movie had so much going for it, but it never really found its groove. So many elements necessary for a good sci-fi thriller were there but not put to good use.
<
>Having said that, I still recommend checking it out. It's kind of a mess, but I can't deny the creep factor of this movie. It's dark and brooding and has a few good shocks.
<
>As with everything else I've seen by Paul Anderson, something's missing. It's the body of a good movie absent a soul. Maybe one of these days he'll get it all together on one. I'll look forward to it.
