Editorial Reviews

The year is 2047. Years earlier, the pioneering research vessel Event Horizon vanished without a trace. Now a signal from it has been detected, and the United States Aerospace Command responds. Hurtling toward the signal's source are a fearless captain (Laurence Fishburne), his elite crew and the lost ship's designer (Sam Neill). Their mission: find and salvage the state-of-the-art spacecraft. What they find is state-of-the-art interstellar terror.

Summary: Finally on Blu-ray
Comment: If you're looking at the Blu-ray reviews and deciding whether to purchase then you've likely already seen this flick so I will not waste your time with the stuff you already know.

I picked this up locally the day it came out. Now you bought your Blu-ray player for jaw dropping visuals one would assume. This movie will NOT give that to you. That being said, the movie is a lot sharper on Blu-ray, the colors are more distinguished, and you will notice more in the background. The truly impressive visuals are found in the warp drive - spike ball, gyroscope engine drive thing. There is a grainy look to the film as well.

If you've been a fan of this movie by all means purchase it. It's a unique film, a piece of art in my opinion and well worth the money. HD snobs who can't get beyond a PERFECT transfer will trash the movie as you have already read if you've made it this far down the line of reviews :)

Summary: BLU RAY Review
Comment: Love the movie but no wow effects on the video quality. Id say that the upconversion on the standard dvd would be of same detail that of this blu ray edition.

Summary: Event Horizon...a critical overview
Comment: Event Horizon has all the components to make a great film.
stunning cast, amazing special EFX, Directing is.....
well, its good from the start.
and thats where it ends.
you have a good watch until the last part of the movie.that part thats supposed to tie up all the loose ends...
and that is when you want your money back.
it just doesn't have the close.
I will not disclose any spoilers, but the end has a look that seems to be as if, they had a new writer for the last 20-30 minutes of the movie,or maybe a new director,who took over,and didnt have a good idea what went on before.
it would be worth waiting until you can pickup this in the bargain bin.
at 19.99,its not there yet.

Summary: Event Horizon
Comment: To me, this is a great horror. I find it hard to enjoy horror movies today (today is Dec 12, 2008) because all they are are gore fests with half naked women. I love this movie because for one thing it does not derive its "fear-making" from BOO! haha you jumped, but rather it slowly gets you into the movie and begins to play with your mind. It is rather gorey, though there are worse (such as Lord of Illusions). This movie will not disappoint, unlike current horrors today that can only scare grandma's and people with weak stomachs. Buy this and prepare to crap your pants!
