Feel like slowly drilling a hole in your head? Why not watch "Event Horizon" instead?

Rating: 1/10 (16 November 1998)

In the movie `Stargate' we were brought to the other side of the universe and what did we find? Egypt. In the movie `Contact' we were brought to the edge of the universe and what did we find? Breakfast show secular humanists. And so, in the movie `Event Horizon,' we are brought to the edge of the universe and what do we find? Leatherface from `Texas Chain Saw Massacre'.
This movie was bad. Very, very bad. It was painful to watch and it's painful to remember, too. Basically, a crew entirely composed of stereotypes act poorly, until they are all horribly murdered for no apparent reason. Well, all of them except for the most annoying character, Cooper. Who earned my hate when he uttered the phrase `How'd you like something hot and black inside of you?'
This movie also manages to be to have too many gory scenes for non-horror fans, but not enough gory scenes for horror fans. Thus making it undesirable by all.
Did I mention it was a bad movie?
Oh, and on an added note, I managed to embarrass my friends greatly by actually screaming once the credits rolled on. `Cooper didn't die!' I cried, flinging down my half finished cola in rage. `Cooper didn't die!'
I blame this movie for my subsequent isolation.
