Re: That was a sci-fi original movie?
[quote name="Fullofkittens"][quote name="FABIO"][quote name="Fullofkittens"]Wow, it's good in those terms. BTW, the (OMG spoilers!) black guy may not "die" in Event Horizon, but he goes to Hell anyways, so I'm thinking he still got jacked. FoK[/quote] No the <i>other</i> black guy that made it out with the "i'm the most attractive female so of course I'm going to live" blonde chick. Of course, the chick's hallucination suggested that the part of the ship they escaped in remained haunted, and they were still fucked. Also, when drawing up plans for the Event Horizon and the time came to figure out a method for seperating the bow from the stern, the <i>only</i> solution the designers could come up with was planting loose demo charges throughout the corridor and violently EXPLODE the two apart? What a great way to ensure hull integrity.[/quote] Oh yeah! Forgot about him. Despite my not caring about anyone in that movie, I didn't hate anybody, and I guess that's all that's required. For some reason I found <i>Event Horizon</i> scary as hell. The fact that I watched it by myself in the dark at my parents house (they live in the country; dark is DARK out there) didn't hurt, but I think that I'm just vulnerable to a particular horror movie trope: the garbled transmission. <i>Prince of Darkness</i> had that, too, and I find that one undeservedly terrifying as well. [quote name="IMDB trivia for Event Horizon"] Director 'Anderson, Paul' (III) was forced to cut over 20 minutes of violent scenes so the film could reach the R-rating.[/quote] Makes you wonder what got cut. Where's my blood-soaked Criterion DVD? FoK[/quote]
