Don't waste your precious time with other terror-wannabe movies...

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2001)

Do you want a dark and gruesome movie to scare the crap out of you? Don't hesitate and watch "Event Horizon", a breathtaking, deep film with awesome atmosphere, one of the best I've ever seen in the genre. Directed by Paul Anderson ("Mortal Kombat", "Soldier" and in a short time "Resident Evil"), recreates the typical haunted house story, but in the future and instead of a house, a spaceship.
The plot is really interesting and creepy: a salvage expedition travels to Neptune to recover the "Event Horizon", a gigantic spaceship that is supposed to travel faster than the light speed by using the blackholes power. In its first journey, it became lost mysteriously. 7 years later, it suddenly appeared in the Neptune orbit.
(SPOILER AHEAD!!!)
Captain Miller (Laurence Fishburne) and his salvage crew and Dr. Weir (Sam Neill) will find that the spaceship in these 7 years has visited another dimension, "a dimension of pure chaos, of pure evil", as they realize that the ship is alive!
(SPOILER ENDED) :)
"Event Horizon" is a very frightening film. Not because of the gore only, but the story too. It's really deep and scary. I watched the movie on VHS, a pity because this movie must be incredible in the cinema! That reminds me my friends, that went to see the movie in the theaters. When they went out, they were pale! It's true. They found "Event Horizon" weird and violent. Maybe they're right. What do you think? Go and see it! 9 out of 10
