Very scary but useless profanity and gore.

Rating: 7/10 (9 May 1999)

I found the idea behind Event Horizon to be pretty scary and the scenes where they play back the tapes of the former crew entering "hell" to be terrifying. But why or why was there so much profanity and gore? For me it ruined the movie, especially the quick nude scene. What purpose did it serve?
The special effects were excellent and I found the acting to be solid.
All in all, it did provide scares and it left a lingering dread feeling like no other has since the bad, but scary Amityville Horror. I give Event Horizon a B-.
