I like Mark Walberg as well.

Is there a twist in this one like other M. Night Shamalayn films?

To be honest, I don't even remember - LOL - There was more of a "lame explanation" than twist. ;)

As for Event Horizon vs. The Orphanage, they're both good movies and entirely different genres...

I say start off with Event Horizon, get your dose of scifi horror and then finish off with the nice atmospheric Orphanage - A good solid ghost story to lull you to sleep.

I only have time for one of them tonight ;).

But, seriously, I think I'm leaning towards Event Horizon now. GOD this is a hard decision lol.

There's always time for another horror movie. ;)

Bit of a no brainer this question.

The Orphanage wins by a landslide.

Watch The Orphanage,

Why, you ask?

Because I said so.:cool:

The Orphanage is the only one of these films I've seen (I've not seen too much of this new-fangled stuff)

It's pretty good, although the credit sequence at the beginning is very cheesy. I wouldn't say it's too scary (although kudos to the fact that this film delivers it's share of atmosphere over cheap gore and effects)

I think of it more as a macabre horror-esque drama then a straight-up horror film. It's sort of similar to The Others in tone, which is another great modern horror film.

Well, I ended up watching Event Horizon. I rated it 2.5 stars out of 5. Not a great movie by any stretch although the scene where you see what happened to the previous crew with the demon orgy is SO SO SO scary!! I rewound it back just to see it again after the film was over.

The Orphanage will be the next movie I watch for sure! I just requested it at my local library.
