Just watched Event Horizon for the first time yesterday

[Grudge]

That scene where they play the final log of the old ship crew fucked me up for the whole day. It was just a few seconds but I think if you're going to be horrified by something that is it. I looked up some reddit comments on the movie and its turning into a rabbit hole for warhammer 40k.

Superb acting by Lawrence Fishburne by the way. I don't know why this g.uy didn't become a bigger star.

One of my all time favorite movies for sure. Yeah I've heard about the Warhammer 40k connection thing which is silly. For the longest time, the movie's description has been 'Hellraiser in space' which I think is pretty accurate.

They just recently released the first and second issues of an Event Horizon comic which is a prequel to the movie. It tackles the events that happened on the ship before and after they initiated the gravity drive. Search for 'Event Horizon: Dark Descent' in google.

There's a much longer cut of the film that was screened for the studio. They were horrified, and had the film cut down by about 30 minutes. There was a lot more hell, mutilations and extreme gore. Sadly, the footage has since been damaged badly and cannot be recovered. Good ol' days of storing on films.

This was also Paul W.S Anderson's last good film.

[jawn galliano]

yeah i just saw it for the first time a couple years ago, and afterward i was like "damn ok what else did this hard-on bearer direct, time to go on a dive" and was very dismayed

i always thought lawrence fishburne did pretty well for himself? had some blockbuster roles, has been consistently working for like 40+ years. he's not tom cruise big i guess, but he's never really languished in obscurity or anything

[shadowalk]

aye, it's probably my favorite laurence fishburne movie

then again, i'm not aware of much of his films - i only of the matrix movies, mystic river and this one

[jawn galliano]

That's what made me give this movie a try, I recently watched King of New York, and I started seeing Event Horizon in my recommendations.

Oh damn. I feel like it's the opposite for the majority of folks.

[deckard]

great film, its popping up on the youtube shorts right now for me,

need to watch it again, i have it on bluray somewhere

[Svartmetall]

There was a really interesting fan theory I read...somewhere...back in the day, that this is actually set in the Warhammer 40K universe, and Event Horizon's drive took the ship into the Warp for the first time in human history.

Which...kind of works. I'd love to see the extended version mentioned above...

This was just announced.

https://bloody-disgusting.com/comics/39 ... -from-idw/

Following the success of the prequel comic Event Horizon: Dark Descent, a sequel comic set 200 years after the events of Paul W.S. Anderson’s 1997 cosmic horror film is landing soon.

Event Horizon: Inferno will launch in April 2026 from IDW Dark.

cant anyone be content to just let a thing exist on its own

can we spare one single thing from turning into an expanded multimedia franchise

clearly not but ill never stop complaining about this bullshit

[User]

yes

Event Horizon never was marketable enough to become a multi-franchise like Alien, Predator and more. It's always going to be a standalone film. These new comics are essentially non-canon. The prequel is really good and is handled with care.
