Film Screening — Event Horizon
Event Horizon initially bombed amongst critics and audiences alike, but in time, Anderson’s gnarly, unforgettable, sci-fi/horror crossover has grown considerably in reputation. Starring Sam Neill, Laurence Fishburne, and a spaceship that returns from a journey through Hell, Event Horizon offers a fascinating cautionary tale about our inability to let go of the past, a tale enhanced by a cast that brings real depth to what might, on paper, have looked like fairly disposable genre work.
"[Event Horizon] is surprisingly alive and occasionally poetic in its imagery. Anderson successfully conjures his creepy atmosphere with flash cuts to disturbing violence, minimal use of digital effects, and a Bava-meets-Kubrick production design. Above all, Event Horizon is unnerving." – Patrick Dahl, Screen Slate
