Product Description

 
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 disturbing moments in its often potent combination of horror and sci-fi.

Deep Space Terror

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: A very entertaining futuristic horror movie!
Review: Hollywood doesn't make many horror movies since they are not big business, so it's nice to see at least a few come out each year. Event Horizon was one of those releases, and it was not a disappointment. The story was fascinating and the special...
