EVENT HORIZON (1997). I really wanted to like this more...really good Special effects and I like Sam Neill and Lawrence Fishburne (although He sure did sound a lot like SGT Appone from ALIENS "Listen Up People!"). I could see the ALIEN inspiration, than it goes into HELLRAISER territory-have read that there is also a SHINING aura around it, although I didn't notice that. By the end, EH has become so chaotic it's hard to feel satisfied.
Found out doing some research.that there was only a 10 week schedule and than Paramount removed almost 30 minutes from the film to appeal more to audiences and for no good reason as EV didn't do good Box office at all. Two big strikes against it and not even any material left over for a Director's Cut, which stinks as this really could have been a decent film. **
