I loved this movie

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2004)

I personnaly loved this movie. Many people hate this movie but I don't understand why unless they just hate sci-fi/horror flicks. The first time I saw EH I thought it was pretty creepy, especially Claire with no eyes, the recorded message, and the little kid that kept appearing throughout the film. The second time I saw it, I liked it even better. I finally bought the DVD and have watched it several more times and I love it. Maybe watching a movie more than once isn't for everyone.
I think that a lot of the negativity for this movie comes from the director Paul Anderson. A lot of people really hate this guy. After seeing Alien vs Predator some of this hatred is understandable, but I feel that EH was by far the best of his movies.
The cast of EH was very good. I thought that all of the actors did a good job with their characters. Maybe they could have done a little more development of the main characters, (ie Weir, and Miller) to tell us more about where they came from and their backgrounds. Jolie Richardson is hot too!!
I thought that the whole concept for the movie was great, a ship that travels to another dimension and comes back alive. I love it. Some of the ways the crew members are killed are pretty cool too. The visualizations of Hell and the original crews fates are awesome too. Lets face it, Hell is probably a very bad place!!!!
In summary, this is a great movie, although not to the caliber of Aliens. The fact that so many people talk about this movie shows that there is definitely something here. There is a definite cult following.
