Synopsis
In this eerie science-fiction ghost story, an astrophysicist (Sam Neill), haunted by the memory of his wife's suicide, joins a rescue mission to salvage his life's work: the Event Horizon, a prototype spacecraft capable of faster-than-light travel that has been missing for seven years. Their arrival triggers contact with something beyond human experience--and more dangerous than ever imaginable. Similar in plot to Andrei Tarkovsky's eponymous screen adaptation of Stanislaw Lem's science-fiction novel SOLARIS, EVENT HORIZON provides some truly potent moments in its often potent combination of horror and sci-fi.

Customer Reviews

Liberate Tutame Ix Infernis! - A Terryfying Venture awaits in EVENT HORIZON
This Film is well worth watching despite the bad reviews and poor box office as Paul W.S. Anderson offers us not just "Infinite Space" as well as "Infinite Terror", Just as the Poster Promises.

from the Paramount Logo to the closing credits i was enthralled by this terryfying film that is not only a nice piece of storytelling but is scarier than ALIEN (The Scares in this film still got me after the 4th time of watching it - The Sign of a Good Horror Film)

If you want scares as well as an intruiging story about a haunted House with a Difference (It's set in Space for Gods Sake) then this is the film for you.

"Hell is Only a Word. The Reality is much much Worse!!"

You'd better believe it.

It's a shame amazon can only do 5 Stars, I'd Like to give this a 10.

One of the best horror films I have seen in a long time
I first saw this when it was released ten years ago and having not seen it since, I was surprised as to how truelly chilling it is.

A crew are on theri way to answer a distress call sent out by the Event Horizon, a space craft that can bend space and time, which has been missing for seven years. Once aboard, the crew start to see some strange and distressing things. Just where has the ship been and what has it brought back?

Sam Neil gives a solid and frightening performance. Also good is Sean Pertwee and Laurence Fishbourne.

This is an underrated film, which I was surprised to find that not many of my friends had heard of. I found it truelly scary and it put me off the whole idea of time travel! Doctor Who it aint!
