The movie was supposed to be much darker and graphic, but studio forced director to tone it back. Then studio put film in a Siberia salt mine and the film got destroyed. Well never get that directors cut. 😢
Fun fact: Some of the sets were repurposed from the alien movies they found in a warehouse. Also, this is basically a haunted house in space. The director said in a interview the ship is actually designed from old churches, they just laid it out in ways not possible in architecture. This dark city and equilibrium are underrated, forgotten, Sci fi gems.
All three of these are DEFINITELY gems in the genre. Any one of those other two you mentioned would be a great follow up to this one, or at least once Halloween season ends comes to an end.
The ship IS the villain. You kind of have to take it on faith that the space between destinations was as close to a hell of pure chaos and that it changed and perverted the very nature of the Event Horizon into a giant haunted, cursed house. Its both a haunting presence and an infectious disease spreading madness to whatever it touches
The first time I saw Event Horizon, I was about eleven years old. I was home from school with a fever. My parents knew I loved sci-fi movies, so they rented me one from Blockbuster. You can imagine what watching Event Horizon with a fever is like, and so naturally, the movie is carved deep into my brain...
There’s a rumor this movie was supposed to be a Warhammer 40k movie cause this is more or less exactly what traveling through the Warp (Hell) in 40k is like. You need to pass through the Warp in order to travel quickly through space and the theory is that this movie is humanity’s first encounter with the Warp and it’s demonic entities/corruption. Traveling through without a Gellar-Field (basic a anti-demon ship shield) is incredibly dangerous and leads to ships coming out looking a LOT like Event Horizon
That was never a rumor. That was a fan theory that wasn't brought up until roughly a decade after the film was released. Now don't get me wrong, it's a great fan theory, and in my made up head canon it definitely is an early event of humanity first contacting the warp and chaos in a 40k prequel, but that was never the intention of the filmmakers. The film has nothing realistically to do with Warhammer outside of the setting and plot somewhat matching up by coincidence. Any parallels between the two was sadly unintentional.
@@-LDK- It was definitely influenced by 40k, though, so not exactly a coincidence. Here's a tweet from philip eisner, the screenwriter: Philip Eisner 🧢 @phubar I played the shit out of 40K, so it was definitely an influence, conscious or otherwise.
I've heard many things about 40k, lorewise, that has always piqued my interest. But it's such a wide-spanning franchise that I have no idea where to start getting into it.
THIS IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE HORROR MOVIE OF ALL TIME. Something about how dark and psychological this movie is just makes me so happy when watching it. It’s such an amazing film.
It's not a gun that Captain Miller uses late in the film, it's a hull repair tool. The exact same tool Cooper and Smith were using to repair the Lewis & Clark's hull, and it is essentially a nail gun for repairs in a vacuum.
Great film but evidently there was a ton of stuff that got cut out and was supposedly destroyed. From what I've heard the film was much more graphic and insane.
This is cosmic horror (hp lovecraft), in cosmic horror you really can’t show the real bad guys, they are multidimensional beings beyond space and time and to see even a small portion of them is to go insane. To see more cosmic horror see “in the mouth of madness” also starring Sam Neill (John carpenter)
I like how the last three people left alive are the two black guys and the blonde woman, the characters who are usually the first to die in most horror movies.
i thought it was one black guy (the one who came back and was repairing the ship), the kid who tried to commit suicide, and the blonde. i thought the captain blew himself up in breaking apart the ship?
Losing one's mind is also a central theme in cosmic horror, which I consider a suitable label for this particular film. I think that this film is a bit of a mixed bag to me. I think that it's a bit too over-the-top later in the film, but up until then I quite like it. And besides, I always enjoy seeing Sam Neill!
This was one of the films that played atthe movies theater I worked at which a teenager. I would watch it every break period, it was so popular at the time. Such a great sci fi horror film.
18:24 "Ah, jeez, don't get fooled!" You may recall that the CO² scrubbers on the Event Horizon were expended for the most part, leading to an increased concentration, which side effects as mentioned in the film (with some basis in real science and biochemistry) included impaired judgment. It's entirely plausible that at the time Peters was suffering those effects, which doesn't take away from the fact that the ship itself was fccking with her head by creating those illusions.
21:41 That's a space vessel's version of a nail gun, for hull repair, as demonstrated when you saw the hull of the Lewis and Clark being sealed. Serves the same purpose, but can also be used offensively in a pinch.
There was a unedited version of this that was so gory and disturbing they never released it. Unfortunately the original film was stored improperly and was destroyed, so the unedited footage has been lost 💔😥😥
The film explains itself pretty clearly from what I remember. They open a portal directly to Hell, and the villain of the piece is the demonic presence that has infested the ship itself. It's not an alien or anything like that it's literally demonic possession lol.
Count yourselves lucky for not having access to the uncut directors version! This is what happens when we attempt to travel Faster Than Light without proper protection. Some say, in certain lore, it may do things to our mind. That there may be 'entities' in realms we cannot see, but are accessible view FTL methods. xD If you know the Table Top minis franchise of Warhammer 40K, this was basically a love letter to it from the writer/s, having been fans of the game and franchise.
@@minuette1752 Good luck! It *might* be out there in the deepest darkest recesses of the interwebs, somewhere. It *is* was online somewhere, when I found it maybe a handful of years after the movie came out. Can't have been completely scrubbed, just buried really really deep.
7:03 "Why are there spikes on the wall, though?" I would surmise that when the rings align, the spikes act as a focusing mechanism for the gravity field, to concentrate it into a singularity so the gateway can form.
When this movie first came out it was pretty inventive and original. It's a really good haunted house story in space. Just the idea of the ship coming back from the actual Hell is pretty frightning.
Until this movie I didn’t think Sam Neil could be scary. I had no idea how many disturbing movies he was in before. I only thought of him as the Jurassic Park guy.
For the hell scenes they used amputees & pr0n actors. The tank of blood breaking open reminds me of the blood from the elevator at the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. Allegedly the full cut of this film was lost at the bottom of a salt mine in Transylvania, but had deteriorated beyond repair. Another great Sam Neill film is In The Mouth of Madness by John Carpenter.
Still love the practical effect folk folded Notre Dame to make the spaceship then 20 some laters, burns up? Might explain why the lost film that was lost in a Romanian burning mine...
Rumours abound that this film is an unofficial prequel for Henry Cavill's upcoming Warhammer 40K Cinematic and Television Universe. A TH-camr with the handle of @WarriorTier is a prolific Warhammer 40K loremaster and has published quite a number of segments on the subject. One vid even has an accurate representation of the Event Horizon as a relic from before the Dark Age of Technology, before Human engineers and scientists began to install and use Gellar fields in their ships. Keep your eyes open for any updates on the Warhammer 40K film verse, okay?
19:15 The day may come at some point when we no longer have to worry about those being pixel-blurred out of sight, because we won't think much of seeing them.
interesting you think the gore was just the right amount. most of the gore was removed by studio order to the director, since the scene in the command center where you see flashes of the crew killing themselves, was actually porn stars told by the director to "have a massive orgy while you rip apart your internal organs" and the scene lasted a minimum of 5 minutes with them having sex while ripping their organs out in a bloody screaming at top of the lungs blood/murder orgy. as well the 2 scene where weir shows not-morpheus what will happen to the crew, with them alive but their bodies impaled, cut in half with worms, their skin rotting while suffering, on the "hell" dimension. that was also a minimum of 5 minutes in detail gore scenery. would you have hated this version?
This is a great flick for your friends who love scifi but aren't too keen on horror. The science is solid, the ships look amazing, and the horror creeps in slowly. Similar fun flicks in the same feel... Lifeforce, The Black Hole, and Pandorum.
I was playing dead space remake last week and I was thinking how much it reminded of Event horizon. I had such a similar feeling in some places... I love this movie, I really do.
Event Horizon is a great movie. I remember renting it in 1997 and really enjoying it. I don’t know how successful it was in theatres but back in 1997, if it was out on video within the same year, that wasn’t a good sign. Underrated gem.
I heard there was a lot of studio interference with cutting the budget and editing time.There was going to be more gore and horror but was cut out. 30 something minutes were cut.
Content was cut, just to keep it at the *R* rating it received. What was left to the, now lost, 'director's cut' would have pushed it into the NC-17 category, or worse.
I dig this movie! ManCave has an 11x17 poster for it. The effects are better than many effects now. Because they are practical and look real instead of current things like Quantumania etc…
@@Maya_Ruinz Only so far into the IP they could dip their toes (considering GW *love* to slap dmca's, cease & desists, etc. on people they even think is trying make any kind of money off them without going through them).
With all due respect....*channels inner Chappelle* "You have great New York boobs!" In all sincerity, this movie is still one of my favorite sci-fi/horror movies ever. Granted it isn't quite like "The Thing" or other classics, but I still think it holds up.
It didn't do that well at the time but gained more popularity later, but I loved it even as a kid. It was like hellraiser in space without being hellraiser and only showing the results not their new friends from out of town, I mean really, do you see... DO YOU SEE!!!
The writer/s have stated they were inspired by/fans of 40K. So this is basically a 'love letter' to the franchise. And a prime example of Warp Travel without a Gellar Field! ^_^ I saw this on release (almost the exact day, iirc) during my prime days of playing 40K and it gave me literal *chills* and gut twisting feeling of just being 'Chaos'. Bit of Khorne, bit of Slannesh. (specially the, now thankfully lost, directors cut)
bruh... they went to Hell, got posessed by a demon, empowered by the crews human sacrifice, that decided to come back for more....,that's "why" it was such an aggressive entity.. XD
Meh. I 'may' have enjoyed this more at the theater and beyond if I had known what I was going to see. The trailers did a wonderful job of hiding the fact it is a cheap slasher movie hidden in the guise of a science fiction mystery. It's starts off well enough before descending into trope valley where it dies. If it had released today - they would have given away the entire premise and I could have saved a few dollars.
This movie has often been called the unofficial prequel to Warhammer 40K. The reason is that the ships in the series use the same technology to get around the universe. But the ships use what are called "Geller Fields" to shield themselves from the hellish entities that inhabit those passage ways. Ergo, the Warhammer 40K connection.
Boy, you guys are going to get Nightmares tonight when you sleep!!! Lol... This movie is very good. But it will give you creepy feelings, in a dark room! Good luck.
Oh Jaby, as glad as I am that you finally watched this movie and as much as I like Hayley, you really should've watched it with Steph. You know how she is with horror and this one would stick with her. I would've loved to see her reactions lol. I've seen some pretty scary movies in my time, but few haunt me years after seeing them. This one still haunts me to this day. It's just the idea of where that ship went and what happened to the crew that makes it very disturbing. Unfortunately, the version we got was cut down by a half an hour. The director's cut was around 2 hours and had more scares, character development, and fleshed out the story better. I read that it was stored on a VHS tape in a barn and it burned down along with that tape of the director's cut. There are rumors of another copy out there, but I don't know. I hope so. It also contained more of that violent orgy scene. There are some deleted scenes right here on TH-cam, though. Amazon has been developing a TV series remake for a few years now, so hopefully it'll happen. Specific plot details are unknown, but I assume it'll be about the actual Event Horizon crew. I doubt they'd tell this particular story all over again.
The "Hell Is Only A Word. The Reality Is Much, Much Worse!" scene was so disturbing that it stayed with me decades after watching the movie.
The movie was supposed to be much darker and graphic, but studio forced director to tone it back. Then studio put film in a Siberia salt mine and the film got destroyed.
Well never get that directors cut. 😢
The cut scene with the demon guy crawling down the staircase was awesome

The second containment corridor was also used in "In the Mouth of Madness" made in 1994 by John Carpenter
I thought the ship was based on Notre Dame specifically, rather than random old churches.

This movie has often been called the unofficial prequel to Warhammer 40K. The reason is that the ships in the series use the same technology to get around the universe. But the ships use what are called "Geller Fields" to shield themselves from the hellish entities that inhabit those passage ways. Ergo, the Warhammer 40K connection.
We need succession reaction!!!!!!!! Please don't stop.
Black guy made it to the end!
Paul Anderson films are usaully dumb but fun
But Event Horizon is the rare exception that its pretty well done overall.
Boy, you guys are going to get Nightmares tonight when you sleep!!! Lol... This movie is very good. But it will give you creepy feelings, in a dark room! Good luck.
"No one else knew Latin".
How many people do you know that know Latin? It's considered a dead language for a reason.
"That's gonna stay with you... "
Um, yeah... You probably won't even remember that at all after watching this film. 🤣
Oh Jaby, as glad as I am that you finally watched this movie and as much as I like Hayley, you really should've watched it with Steph. You know how she is with horror and this one would stick with her. I would've loved to see her reactions lol. I've seen some pretty scary movies in my time, but few haunt me years after seeing them. This one still haunts me to this day. It's just the idea of where that ship went and what happened to the crew that makes it very disturbing. Unfortunately, the version we got was cut down by a half an hour. The director's cut was around 2 hours and had more scares, character development, and fleshed out the story better. I read that it was stored on a VHS tape in a barn and it burned down along with that tape of the director's cut. There are rumors of another copy out there, but I don't know. I hope so. It also contained more of that violent orgy scene. There are some deleted scenes right here on TH-cam, though. Amazon has been developing a TV series remake for a few years now, so hopefully it'll happen. Specific plot details are unknown, but I assume it'll be about the actual Event Horizon crew. I doubt they'd tell this particular story all over again.

This movie and The Descent are some of my favorite horror movies
