Superb Sci-fi Horror

Rating: Null/10 (24 October 2001)

Normally I don't like to watch Sci-fi movies. Horror is my top choice but since this was Sci-fi and horror I decided to watch it. I was surprised by the storyline. The storyline is great! A team are sent into space to search the 'event Horizon'. A ship that went missing for 7 years in the regions of Neptune. They want to find out where it has been. Cue interesting music. The story was interesting. When the team of elite mixed British and American actors arrive on the ship, they all start seeing things. They see very spooky things that have happened from their past or that are just plain nasty. The music is very scary and the actual 'Event Horizon' ship is scary too. 'Looks like a giant meat grinder to me.' says one of the characters. Don't fret gore hounds! This movie is filled with gore and revolting images. Get the UNCUT version! The characters are great and so is the acting. The gore comes at the right time. The movie is scary and claustrophobic. Don't think that it rips-off 'Alien'. Overall, it is great and a real thrill ride. If the special fx were a little better I would rate it higher. If you don't care then watch it! 8.5 out of 10.
