Truly Terrifying

Rating: 9/10 (26 February 2002)

I'm not sure why so many people dislike this movie. When I saw it in the movie theater, I was truly scared. I've been watching Horror movies for a long time and I only got scared off of Hellraiser II, Evil Dead, Milo, and Jacob's Ladder (personal demon things were too creepy). But this movie wasn't scary in visual effect. But more so tone and atmosphere. The moview was rich in atmosphere of the unknown and terror. The gore parts were fine.

I don't mind a good gore flick, but ****MINOR SPOILERS- listening to the the screams of the previous crew, the flashes of chaos, and the setting of the ship, were truly frightening. Made it seem that there really was some sort of doorway to hell. Not too mention the airlock scene was truly horrific******-MINOR SPOILERS
Anyway, a lot of people didn't like the movie because the ending left them hanging. No closure and people seem to need that. I think that has to do with the lack of interest in the film. I for one cherish the unpredictable and this film delivers with a great atmosphere. I recommend 9/10.
