Very frightening... Very gory... Very good...

Rating: 8/10 (6 September 1999)

I saw this film on video with my friend's place (yet again). The movie like a combination of Alien and Hellraiser, placed in a long lost spaceship called Event Horizon. There's something evil in this ship, and everybody in the crew starts to freak out. the beginning was kind of a "clische", with different illusions of the crew. But when when the movie continues, i felt like this was nothing i've seen before in my life!!! And it was more that i expected. The director of the movie, Paul Anderson, wasn't exactly my favourite director (after i saw Mortal Kombat, of course). But Paul got something in his sleeves, that looked like the Wachowski brothers, with this "spinnig-camera-in-the-space". That special effect alone was making my stomich mourning. The flick was a little bit of gory, with lots of blood and insides. I never were a gore-fan, but in this movie i watched with pleasure, never even saying "F*CK!!'n YUCK". Maybe it was my sadistic side, but the gore somehow fits in the movie well. Overall:Good movie, fun to watch, with nice special effects and camera angles. I you can get on the video, buy it!!! Or if it still runs in any cinema, go see it!!!
