Review of Event Horizon (1997) by Hellholehorror — 21 Sep 2022
This looks absolutely great, all practical effects beautifully composited. It is very stylish and looks unique but also fitting genre conventions. Some of the subtle use of CGI looked a little dated but nothing major.
Very good sound. It worked well on all levels. I liked the music. This is hell in space! In fact it is Hellraiser (1987) vs. Alien (1979) and also slightly inspired The Matrix (1999). It is scary, gory, jumpy and slightly funny at inappropriate times.
I liked the story. There are some major big scares that made me jump like mad. I was also nervous to walk around the house thinking that there would be scary demons and hallucinations around every shadowy corner.
It's a good film that you can easily see what inspired it.
