Unbelievably gross

Rating: 2/10 (12 July 2000)

When I went to the theater to watch Event Horizon, I wasn't expecting much - my standards for sci-fi films are pretty low. I wasn't expecting a great plot, just one that could produce some scary scenes.
Instead, I was subjected to 90 minutes of horrific imagery not often seen outside of Bosch paintings. In retrospect, this movie was very effective at disturbing me - if only by producing such unbelievably nasty scenes that I had no choice. I was closer to getting sick than being scared.
Maybe that's why I hated this movie so much. Very little about the plot will surprise you, but the images will stay with you for a while. A long, long while. Don't get any popcorn ready when you rent this one.
