  • note to self: never go to the "chaos" dimension.

  • This is Dead Space before Dead Space.

  • this movie contains my favourite horror movie quote: "FUHUUUUUCK THIS SHIP"

  • so basically like spere

  • @mustafabean Sphere has somewhat the same feel of the movie but ending and story are very different.

  • family guy

  • Dead Space review referrals brought me here :)

  • I heard this movie is kinda like Dead Space,but where are the monsters?

  • some have said that kubric had the same taste...but he was also very conservative in the writting---it would have to be a bit bolder than kubric.

  • thety tried this with inception and although it was good, they didnt really hit the mark im looking for ,im looking alfred hithcock level with inception or matrix, inception although a good movie was clearly not this. 

  • take a lot of skill to fuse them together (although some may think that play on psychology is itself high concept, high concept and 'smart' being intertwined, but its not the type of high concept you see in event horizon or the matrix, its the theater of psychology---someone needs to make a sci fi psych thriller, like the birds but with the matrix = mind acid explosion)

  • whats weird is that brainy or smart movies are seldom high concept, they mostly have to o with character twists and play9ing with human psychology...it would be interesting if someone could fuse a high concept thriller, sci fi, and a smart plot...

    usually they dont go togher..think of all the sci fi movies and youll see the plot generally is lame..alien, terminator, but they are fun to watch.

    high concepts usually take up the space for smart twists and intrigue...so it would

  • than the ones i mentioned. even if they were not at all the most brainy movies. matrix and inception reigh supreme though, as far as popular culture, when it comes to the high concept genre for the previous decade.

  • other bad, but high concept movies are dark city, the 13th floor, and sphere. There is also 'the cube' tbut thats one notch down from those movies.

    they are all pretty crappy movies but have intriguing/high concept ideas (although of course, quite dumbed down)

    recent movies of this tyep of course include the matrix and inception, there are also psych thrillers like 'the birds' (old movie by alfred hitchcock) that fall in this genre, but these movies are of considerable higher quality

  • however i find the concept of the gravity drive appealling, especially for sci fi genre, or anything having to do with the mind or a machine bending space and time. I also like the whole narrative on insanity that is portrayed in dr weir's character. But besides that it was just a bad b movie that turn into an a movie if you are in a pinhead mood, for the samer eason people use to watch aqua marine hunger force or ghos in the shell (which i sstil to, except for aqua marine--total mind crap)

  • look--there is very little reason to think things through when it comes to event horizon. It was a stupid movie---it had some enthralling moments, barely, due to jeff goldblum, but otherwise its just an all and all stupid ass movie with capital A

  • LIBERATE TUTUMAE EX INFERIS!

  • thanks that explains alot but so much confusion 0_0

  • i was so confused with this movie i mean wut is it about? a space horror flick and the space ship can someone explain to me wut this movie is about and wuts wrong with the ship i mean is it haunted cause i was super confused when i saw it

  • @Strivenigga The ship went to a evil dimension who some consider to be hell and the crew were either killed by the evil inhabitants of the dimension or possessed and killed each other. The ship comes back and is possessed by an evil life form. That life form then possesses Dr. Weir.

  • @BlackGold691 i dont know about that..i mean I am assuming you watched the movie but when they watched the video in the captains log, we see that they instantly turned cannibal when they arrived in the other side of the universe...Idk tho..i love the movie tho :D very creepy

  • @123trymeout My theory is they were either possessed or their mind set was stripped down to the 'r complex' or the reptilian part of our brains that houses destructive and base behaviors. Sorry to ramble on. I love the movie too but it left more ?s than answers.

  • good film alittle cheese but definetly had style.

  • Fuck the movie is not nearly as docile as this trailer.

  • MORPHIUS?!

  • @abdulazzizkhadir Captain Miller in this movie

  • Doom + Dead Space = Event Horizon

  • ... Reapers...

  • For the Emperor!

  • Space Station 13: Late Round: The Movie

  • Doesnt seem scary at all lolz

  • God help us . . . BOOM

  • they really had it coming. wtf were they thinking using a machine as spiky and foreboding-looking as that for interdimensional travel. amateurs!

  • 0:35 oh shit it's the guy from Jurassic Park!

  • This movie is fucked up...no joke

  • @musicalpenguins234 haha nice movie review :P lmao

  • Was that creep chick quoting hellraiser?

  • Great concept. Open a wormhole for travel and accidentally end up in hell. I hope they come up with a sequel or do remake.

  • Dead Space!

  • this movie was fucking scary./

  • Dead Space isn't "Event Horizon: The Game." Doom 3 is!

  • dead space movie...it can be done.

  • If I become morbidly rich in the future and WS Anderson is still alive at the point, I'll fucking fund him on a shot-for-shot remake of the original 130 minute version, restoring the film to its gory glory. I'll meddle the hell out of the production so they don't fuck up!

  • ...masterpiece of suspense....

  • This has got to be one of the WORST movies ever produced. I just finished watching it, and i feel like my IQ dropped in half. This movie used every horror-film cliche known to human-kind! And nothing, i mean nothing makes any sense what so ever. If you make the mistake of watching this, be sure to listen to the music that plays when the credits roll. And have a gun/pills/razors or something near by, you'll feel the urge to use them.. believe me on that one.

  • @iRSleepy I think your IQ must have dropped a long time ago. Have a gun/pills/razors nearby because you'll feel the urge to use them? Not OH&S certified I take it.

  • i think i´ve seen this movie like 10 times now - and I still love every minute of it!

  • Saw this when I was 7. Scared me so much. Haven't seen it since. I'm 19 now. I think I want to give it another try. Lol

  • the trailer doesn't do the actual film justice.......this is undoubtedly one of the greatest pseudo indie space-terror films ever written and produced......not everybody's cup of tea for that matter....heh :)

  • @fremartianfl I think the guys that did this movie make the Resident Evil movies right?

  • @tHeWasTeDYouTh

    Right

    

  • What bothered me the most was all those circuit boards in that tunnel he was in, it made me realize that wiring that ship would be worse then hell.

  • looks good im puttin this on demand right now

  • this is the scrariest scary movie ive ever seen

  • My science teacher dared us to watch this movie while we were doing astronomy

  • Eternal-chaos dimension comes with chocolate rain. CHOCOLATE RAIN!

  • It left the dimension... Went through hell... And became a Reaper.

  • best movie of all time

  • The most disturbing film I've ever seen they don't make horror films like they use to I can tell u that when I saw this film for the first time.

  • @fatboy41790 good, but far from disturbing man.

  • is there a version i can watch without all the gore? i don't have a strong stomach but i really want to watch this

  • Comment removed

  • @fightinside1 It isn't that bad. I'm not a huge gore fan and I found it more than tolerable. It's nothing like Saw or any type of torture movies nowadays. There is nothing extremely graphic (save for one or two scenes...you can close your eyes or something =p)

    It's quite an interesting movie. Don't let peoples comments or reviews turn you away from it...the violence and gore isn't as bad as people make it sound.

  • Most disturbing parts in my opinion: that one crew member that could speak Latin getting his insides cut out and the video log from the previous crew. Most disturbing imagery ever!

  • Cult movie. 

  • this is awesome!

  • Is it normal to have watched this on my own on a dark room without looking away

  • @RonanO1510 yes, mate. you in the right place. where you can't see me creeping up on you and making silly faces

  • Where is Isaac?

  • @Chickensaretasty157 You should ask "Where is the Event Horizon?" while playing Dead Space :P That game-series is basically MADE for fans of this movie, it's so similar in many ways (the sound, the ship, the characters, the plot points).

  • @Samoutuomas haha then youre saying issac will end up like the doctor at the end of this movie :( poor dude haha

  • @PapayaSalad82 lol u were the first comment I had to go through 112 pages of comments

  • so many people below are saying that the trailer gives away everything. i had high hopes watching this movie after the trailer, however, the movie exceeded my expectations. wayy scarier than i figured, all around great movie, definatly watch it!

  • so it was around 1995 that they began making trailers that would go through the whole movie's story, so that you have absolutely not curiosity to see it afterwards.

  • looks like the sphere

  • Why does this remind me of the warp / realm of the chaos gods?

  • kind of like the sphere but not quite as excellent both movies very good but ehhh

  • THIS IS LIKE DEAD SPACE 1 and 2

  • Jurrasic Park in space..

  • Idiots. Something tells me that this is the epitome of the movie. Now there's no fun in watching it

  • when bill goes out of the camera and hears voices:

    Billy. Make us whole again

  • The movie was also similar to Dead Space in some ways. I think DS was inspired by EH.

  • Excellent movie. I've never been this disturbed and scared at the same time. The portrayal of a dimension 'much worse than hell' was beyond disturbing.

  • They should make a second part.

  • This is a terribly underrated movie. :(

  • Isn't this more Warhammer 40K than Dead Space?

  • @SixPathPein yeah lol @_@ its a warp gate xD

  • Purge the heresy!

  • @chogally Took a little trip to the Immaterium did we? BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! LET THE UNIVERSE DROWN IN IT!

  • Where we´re going, we won´t need eyes to this movie!!!

  • the concept was good, they cud have made this movie better. one of my favs..

  • Comment removed

  • I Love thi smovie! *.*

  • This movie scared the shit outta me!  It's the reason I don't like space, but it's a pretty good movie.

  • I know one thing... if I was captain Miller... as soon as I would arrive aboard the Event Horizon and see the blood all over the walls, I would get my ship fixed asap, leave the Event Horizon, blow it up and call it a day.

  • AHHHH ITS MORPHEOUS!!!!

  • @eveslmatrix  LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

  • Most underrated horrormovie ever.

  • Great movie but the ending was horrible!!

  • Isn't this exactly like Odessey?

  • i can't picture him as anyone else, i will always see him as allen in jurassic park.

  • @ZACKnirvana

    Horror Fans will always know him for his first major role... Damien Thorn in The Final Conflict

  • @EmperorDraculaIV i'm a horror fan and idk wtf that is so...

  • @ZACKnirvana - It's the 3rd Omen movie. Sam Neill plays the Adult Damien Thorn. It was a "so-so" movie but it was his first major role.

  • @EmperorDraculaIV i'll have to check it out than, i liked the first two, i'll check it out, thanks.

  • @ZACKnirvana No Problem!

  • Well I've seen the movie fo the first time and it wasn't that bad. The acting was cheesy, but I was in the mood for that, and was excatly looking for a cheesy horror movie and this satisfaied me. The explanation as to how all this happens was a bit better then other movies I saw, where they just say ITS A PORTL!!!1

    As far as the cares go they were mostly jump scares, but the imagery was distrubing. I would say much more, but Youtube has this retarded limit with how much you can write.

  • i cracked up when fishburne said "umbilicus" and spun around in his god damn chair. what a riot.

  • so the killer is hal 9000's wife?

  • Is it worth getting on blu ray? I know it's a pretty old movie so it doesn't seem like the quality would actually change much.

  • @CReaper210 you do realize, in the farthest extent, they can go frame by frame for clean up right?

  • @ant1ph0n I have purchased a couple Blu Rays that don't seem to have changed after transitioning to Blu

    Ray from DVD. Like Terminator 1 and 300.

  • Picked this up at the thrift store, and it BLEW ME AWAY!!! Fantastic work... But the enging was sad

  • like in Dead Space......

  • i like this movie cause it reminds me of dead space

  • the people who make Dead space they copy the spaceship and more stuff of this movie...

  • @andres18ism I Know Right

  • kind of like Dead Space but subtract the Isaac Clark, Necromorphs, uniotology and the markers from the equation.

  • @bluebankai061464

    Moar like doom 3.

    When you have disturbing visions of hell.

  • @bluebankai061464 sooooo not like fucking dead space at all then?

  • @bluebankai061464 thats alot to subtract  ...

  • @bluebankai061464 Yeah and then add the direction of Paul Anderson and you have a huge toilet floater of a movie that just won't flush away. Still good trailer.

  • @bluebankai061464 Dead Space is inspired by both Event Horizon and the Alien trilogy - difference is, those movies are scary, and Dead Space isn't.

  • @bluebankai061464 they deffo need to make a dead space movie

  • Then again he wouldnt of made up the whole thing of element 115.

  • I wonder if Bob Lazar is a Nazi?

  • Lets hope the Physicists can LITERALLY capture a graviton and becomes infinitly large you produce a singularity.

  • Spassic Park lol. But what has this movie got to do with real Event Horizon? Back then, 1/2 scientist didn't belive in Black Holes anyway.

  • the dead space series is sooooo inspired by event horizon.

  • @InterEDGE as well as the thing and aliens

  • hello

  • oh!so this is that film that i saw...always wondered

  • I wonder what would have happened if the ship went into heaven instead of hell?

  • @maximkazhenkov11 The crew would have come back to Earth happy and fulfilled with the brightly lit and friendly event horizon towed behind them and the cheerful crew clinking champagne glasses to the success of their mission. But then the movie would have been over in 15 minutes...

  • @AEigner Why come back...Why not make another trip to heaven and stay there for a while enjoying the luxuries that await only the chosen one...LOL

  • this movie is a shit for a horror but a fucking great movie

  • After watching this i hide under my blanket to fall asleep i still wont watch this movie for fear of flashbacks lol

  • Dead Space inspired by this film. They should make Event Horizon 2

  • @Blackhoundrise the 90's had the best films (Mainly horrors), I discover a really good new one every few weeks that I never heard of before, simply coz when they came out, no one liked 'em and no sequels were made, now we look back and wish we had more movies like them and some sequels.... AWESOME movie though!

  • @aliensharkboy

    ya, man. they don't. i like this one, Virus (1999), Screamers etc

  • when i watched this my nuts hit the floor, i had blood shot eyes for 1 week and never watched it again!

  • @imback123ify I also found it rather disturbing. I can't really watch it again.

  • is this also a video game?

  • @bobTom37

    DEAD SPACE its an game based on this movie, this movie influenced a lot in Dead Space

    Search Event Horizon in wikipedia and see in popular culture, you can see it.

  • LIBERATE ME TEME EX INFERNIS!

    Cant understand why people bash this movie, I thought it was quite cool.

  • I have never seen this film but "Space Manoeuvres" sampled some dialogue from this in his epic song "Stage One"

  • Thumbs UP if you agree that this is WHY laveyan's SUCK.

  • one of my favourite fuckin movies

    you feel so messed up at the end

    i think the reason it failed was because people couldnt handle it

    cult classic thumbs up !

  • @MRIHATEHIPSTERS

    yeah i agree on that one.I guees its too hard to understand stuff like that.Missing ship, which went over event horizon and come back with missing crew, hallucinations of rescue crew, and then final act with devil possesed crewmember who tried to pull remaining survivors to hell.One of better movies out there, despite some faults.waaay better than most of nowadays sci fi horror movies.

  • @MRIHATEHIPSTERS

    love your answer. that is so true. if they watched the uncut version with Sam Neil's spider shimmy down a ladder shaft drenched in blood and scars from hell over him: they would have banned it like Evil Dead 1 and 2

  • Wow, reminds me of Dead Space. Only in Dead Space these huge alien zombie things tear the crew on this ship limb from limb...

  • Now this scifi movie has to rank as one of the best space odyssey films made! Neill, Fishburne really carried the film. Been a fan of them both since then. The film is so edgy, dark and one just can't figure out what happens next. It really borders what we think we know of the universe. When will a sequal be made, and a sequal that will do justice to the original, with the same actors again pls!

  • have to see...

  • Dead Space game officially copied this movie almost to the detail.

  • @MrMikeTheDude Kind of ironic, for this movie was inspired by DOOM.

  • @jakproductionsgc How come?

  • @MrMikeTheDude The whole subject of a gateway to hell being discovered, for the ship in Event Horizon and on Mars for DOOM. In fact, there are sound effects used in the movie that were used in DOOM (a door opening and closing). I just think it would be ironic if the creators of Dead Space did copy from this movie at all (since I don't know if they did for a true fact).

  • @jakproductionsgc Wel,i don´t know if you played the game but basically all the little thighs like the "Heart" of the ship represents an evil object are there.In the game is known as "The Marker"(Just like in the movie provokes suicides in the crew,dementia and hallucinations driving everyone to madness)Even in the beginning of the game the ship that suppose to save to or rescue the crew crashes in to the ship (USG Ishimura in the game) but so called "Event Horizon" in the movie.

  • @MrMikeTheDude All in all, a very interesting chain of events. From game to movie, and from movie to game.

  • @jakproductionsgc Yes,indeed.

  • fuck dr. weir. 

  • Dead space :D

  • love this film coz a= it was quality, b= it reminds me of doom, c= the funky shit!!!!!!!

    SWEET!!!

  • The spiritual precursor of DEAD SPACE :D

  • 20 ppl accidently pressed dislike

  • This movie didn't make any sense, how could a woman be a lieutenant???

  • dis is some scary shit

  • no scones for this crew.

  • not bad, but never as good as it could have been.

  • i found this horrible i will never forget the time the real crew of the event horizon were screaming and a guy spewed out his body parts....shudders...

  • Excellent movie, I saw it more then 10 times

    The film combines the best way between horror film and Si Fi

  • @gurgioo i totally agree

  • oh my god thats the funky shit!

  • wait so then the movie Sunshine STOLE their ending? wtf... lame. wasnt a good movie, but lame...

  • This movie has got to be the most disturbing movie I have ever seen. High octane nightmare fuel at it's best. Epic.

  • @yojez Couldn't have put it better myself. It is genuinely disturbing, a true horror flick unlike the teenage crap that hollywood usually sh*ts out.

    I will never forget that scene with Justin in the airlock: "It shows you things...horrible things...the Dark Inside me from the other place...i won't go back there... I won't....if you could see the things i've seen, you wouldn't try to stop me.."

    Only one movie ever creeped me out more than this. Hint: One, two, Freddy's coming for you...

  • @sl9sl9 lol yup, this fucking movie isn't just scary it's fucking DISTURBING. Gotta love it.

  • @yojez I totally agree!

  • @ildico1 why, thank you.

  • Is it just me, or is most of these guys also acting in Jurassick Park ? Im just sayin
