Summary: Scary stuff on the horizon
Review: Sam Neill (Dr. Weir) and Lawrence Fishburne (Captain Miller) are sent into deep space near neptune when the space ship Event Horizon mysteriously re-appears after vanishing for seven years. What the crew find is that the Event Horizon harbours a terrible secret of unimaginable terror and soon the crew are battling to stay alive. Event Horizon is like a modern day Alien, scary as hell combined with great sci-fi effects. The film is well casted with Fishburne and Neill both pulling off good convincing performances. I think the thing i liked most about the film was the originality of the plot and the fact that it was really quite scary. In this day and age its difficult to find a decent scary movie but this one fits the bill and the sci-fi look apon the future helps to extend this fear. If your looking for a great sci-fi horror look no further than Even Horizon.

Summary: Incredibly frightening but often cliched
Review: I felt like this film had scenes that were absolutely flawless. The production design is superb. The ship's layout, lighting, and expansiveness served well towards the creation of a rather ominous and forboding vessel. And many of the outerspace scenes were very high tech. This was particulary true in the beginning of the film.However the film is such an obvious rip off of many other suspense/horror classics like Hellraiser and The Shining most notably that it takes away from what could have been a sci-fi classic. I feel like many of the scenes had been very well conceived and designed accordingly while others were shot in haste without much forethought. I have (surprisingly) found myself coming back to the film over and over though. The saddest thing is that at times you'll feel like it's one of the best horror films ever and at others it seems barely B grade. And it seems to me almost like 2 seperate directors shot the film or that half of the film was shot with adequate funding and ahead of schedule while the other half was shot overbudget and behind schedule. So it's definitely worth a viewing just not necessarily a purchase.

Summary: Wild and crazy.
Review: Excellent acting (Fishburne, Neill, the lovely Joely Richardson) and any problems you may have with the plot aside, this movie is scary. I can honestly say it is the most mentally disturbing movie I have ever seen, aside from the remake of House on Haunted Hill. Those two movies together could scar someone for life. Don't watch it before bed, and DO NOT SHOW TO CHILDREN OR EASILY INFLUENCED PEOPLE. Anyway, great if you're looking for something bizzarely frightening that will surface when you're alone at night. Maybe best as a rental, though, because I don't think I personally would want to watch it over and over again.

Summary: Your average sci-fi flick, but much darker
Review: Throughout most of this film I was constantly asking myself "Is this Alien or what?". Practically everything in this movie (but an alien) is based the 1979 flick Alien. The dark and gloomy ship lost in space, a small terrified crew, I just can't but overlook the similarities. Aside from that this is your basic science fiction movie, only slightly better. Sam Neill and Laurence Fishburne gives great performances, and there are a few scary moments. Rent it, and if you really like it, buy it.

Summary: Darker than hell!
Review: Scary, moody, great special effects. Don't watch this movie expecting fine cinema - this is purely for fun. If you like movies that give you the creeps, I recommend you load up the DVD player, turn out the lights, and get ready!

Summary: Cinematic Crap At Its Best
Review: As far as modern B-rated horror flicks go, none of them really seem to make the grade. With pitiful "slasher" movies like Scream and painfully dissappionting horror films like The Blair Witch Project, Event Horizon swoops in and shows us that awesome B movies can still be made. Underneath the blatant holes in the story (Like if the ship is orbiting Neptune in unpressureized airless space, why is it surrounded by clouds with thunder and lightning?), and dialog that sounds like it was written on the spot ("I need more time"..."Well thats exactly what we dont have, doctor!") lays cinematic crap at its best. Stunning visuals, gore galore and non-stop action puts this movie up in the ranks with Hellraiser and Re-Animator.

Summary: Extremely Scary, Sci-Fi action flick
Review: If you want a movie that will entertain and shock and scary you then you have found the right movie. I was deeply entertained and fell right into it. The atmosphere is very dark, creepy, and unwelcoming but it continues to build and it just gets badder and badder and badder until the ship unltimately turns on the rescue team. Especially with the gory images on what happened to its previous crew and when Sam Neill's character allied with the ship and turn on the rescue team. I could barely get any sleep last night.

Summary: Excellent beyond expectations
Review: This is one of my favorite films of recent time. Along with PitchBlack, there are elements here which easily apply to the fundementals of fear and horror. While well equipped with its share of blood and distressed flesh, the primary element of horror is that it is largely unseen, or rather too large to be seen. The control is no longer in the characters hands, and quickly gathers momentum towards that abyss where fear and damnation is all consuming and enveloping. For those that like some thought in their movies and stories, this is for you...!!

Summary: ...perhaps underrated...
Review: An earlier review condemned this movie for not having the spectrum of special effects available in movies like the Matrix, which was an excellent film, and The Phantom Menace, which was, in my humble opinion, nothing less than a disgrace to the original Star Wars films. Event Horizon is not loaded with eye candy (at least not the type of eye candy that draws in masses to the theaters), but, perhaps because of this fact, the dark, evil psychological effect of the film is intense and undiminished by an onslought of computer graphics. It does not take 50 million dollars to make a good movie, and this film is living proof. If you enjoy the dark side of science fiction, this movie may be a good pick.

Summary: One of the Best in SciFi-Horror
Review: Whats wrong with the moviegoers worldwide. They drop movies like Event Horizon like some B-MovieTrash. This is one of the scariest and best filmed movies ever. OK, the Story isnt about to get any awards, but its not nearly as bad as Episode1. This is the best in Science Fiction Horror since Alien Parts 1-3. Well acted, perfect timed, the best Cinematography in years(same goes with the special effects). And if you really dislike it maybe you deserve movies like Mission to Mars.
