Paul WS anderson is a decent enough director, just not the best writer.

Let's be honest. Paul WS Anderson has managed to make a shitload of money making those shitty films, because they're dumb.

[@brandonporter8509]

Eh I still still say it isn’t doom but it’s a prequel to warhammer 40k. And the event horizon is basically what happened to KILLFRENZY

[@curly_wyn]

But that’s not saying much since Doom should’ve never been made. Both Doom and Event Horizon are horrible.

[@GamePlayMetal]

12:20 Completely disagree with Kieran here. Practical effects IS the way to go for gory stuff, not cgi, which is why The Thing is one of the most digusting movies ever made, and modern horror movies suck a lot.

[@Overlord81]

I agree.

[@andrewamp1]

Yeah practical effects are the best in term of horror, it's what it makes the stuff more "real"

[@themadplotter]

I think Keiran is actually talking about the practical effects in it, like they had great tech for practical effects during that time as well as mixing it with CGI. He just words it strangely.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

Right now that's the case, but it's pretty much inevitable that CGI will be better eventually. The issue tends to be that they don't budget to make it really good. The best CGI is more or less indistinguishable from real life.

[@Seph_vision]

@@SmallSpoonBrigade you can always tell that it is CGI. It feels weightless even the best CGI. Maybe in the future it will fool me

[@SilverSurfer166]

I saw this in the theater with friends, and I have to say it scared the crap out of us. One reason was the marketing didn't convey that this film is horror, it made it out to be a regular SciFi film. The scene that always stuck with me was Sam Neil in the bowels of the ship with the lights going out, and then boom, there's his dead wife yelling in his ear. Great movie

[@ThreadBomb]

I just checked the trailer, and while it didn't show gore, it definitely suggested dark things, possibly supernatural.

[@Nicholas_Steel]

@@ThreadBomb Different regions get different advertising.

[@RisingBeast00]

I may hate the director of this film but I do like how everyone here likes the film and acknowledges that it isn't perfect but had the potential to become one of the most terrifying space horror movie ever had the original scenes remained intact. This had so much potential. I'm just glad the fans realized it too.

What a relief to hear more people complaining about the problem with audio dynamics of movies, since about the DVD era I think. Or THX/Dolby, like one of you said. This problem isn't addressed enough.

[@TheUltimateRage]

It's a problem IN GENERAL!!! Whether I'm watching KZbin, TV, movies, whatever. There's no real standard for volume, so everything is haywire. If you take KZbin by itself, for instance, if you watch multiple videos, you'll instantly notice that all the different videos are at different volumes, sometimes within the same video, ESPECIALLY with video montages. Some clips will be MUCH louder/quieter than others, so it's difficult to deal with sound, even with great speakers!

[@personalspace6270]

Its with a lot of things also with videogames that the sounds are so loud that you cant hear the conversation Netflix has it with some movies and its almost impossible too understand so i have too put on the subs.

yeah, we have options for multiple audio tracks, i dont know why nobody has ever mastered a film in theateical audio on one track, and a “nighttime” audio track with much lower dynamic range so you can watch at night or on crappy speakers without having to adjust the volume in quiet/loud moments

Comrades across the Cosmos it would only make sense right? The way they have them set up now its almost impossible to watch a movie at night without waking the family, or the neighbors

Dolby has dynamic compression settings that do that.

[@manictiger]

I have an E.Q. that can be enabled and used to subtly or drastically alter the sound. I use it when I want a little more bass. Also, my K70 keyboard has a volume roller on it, that allows me to change the volume on the fly. I use it when I think a movie's about to change volume too drastically. (I fucking hate jump scares.)

[@canadianbigshot]

You can look at the film as being in the Warhammer 40k universe and it doesn't lose a beat - the ship went into the warp with no means of protection. Chaos possessed both the crew and the ship. None of them escape at the end. They all die, including the would-be rescuers. Could have been made better, but probably not today.

@Oppai Man That would be the Center Speaker, which is part of 5.1 and higher speaker configurations.

[@visualwarp9707]

Same here and I thought it was just me too. I’m thinking that whispering / soft talking is used more often in modern movies because they assume the higher quality audio and louder volumes for theaters. Seems like old school technique was to make sure actors said their lines loud enough to be picked up clearly, but now they just mumble under their breath the whole time in some movies. In those cases the only way I can hear dialog clearly without blasting my neighbors during action sequences is to just use headphones.

[@RyanAcidhedzMurphy]

From a psychological stand point, the human mind is used to the faces of other people being a certain way. It's the living thing we see most through our lives, right from birth. When they don't correspond to the automatic internal checklist that happens to establish what you're seeing is a face, it creates unease or outright fear. Similar principle to "the uncanny valley". Adding the fright, at a highly impressionable/developmental stage in life, from the movie and you have are having a correlative experience. Eyeless people take you back to that fear you felt as a child.

Same story for me. It was like the most rented movie that year. I thought it was an ok piece even an amateur film maker can do

[@gregoryking4796]

I remember working at blockbuster. Very good times!

[@jimmymelendez1836]

@Tl2aV Nope. This is before Netflix.

[@Mr_Pewpy_But-Whole]

15:00 what if the ship's interior changed to look demonic after it came back from the evil dimension ?

[@abrahammanders8851]

Event Horizon inspired Dead Space...

[@robertgearhart]

I want a remake that includes everything they originally cut out

[@theboredcyborg]

I love this movie. I think it's supremely underrated. Maybe one day we'll get that director's cut, which sounds delectably deplorable!

[@ttthttpd]

Now you gotta do Pandorum. Event Horizon and Pandorum, a perfect double feature.

[@CaveyMoth]

Put 'Sunshine' in, too. And 'Sphere' even though it's underwater instead of outer space.

[@Khronogi]

I've seen pandorum at least 10 times and I still have yet to know what the fuck is going on in that movie lmao.

[@SamJohnnyVoices]

I love Pandorum

THAT INTRO!!!! AWESOMEEEEE!!!!!! who ever came with the idea to do that! my congrats!!!

[@kpyrz]

At 4:19 is that Briscoe County Jr. and Beetlegeuse on the TV??

[@theplatformerreviewer6905]

This movie is definitely better than people make it out to be

[@RisingBeast00]

It's not a good film. It almost is.

[@technosis9094]

This movie is awesome.

[@ThreadBomb]

I think Anderson has generally been underestimated as a director. He's not one of the greats, he's made some duds, but he's made a number of pretty good sci-fi horror movies.

[@jonathanredford215]

Relatable as shit lol, having to turn that volume down during action scenes or music, and way up when the characters insist on whispering. Ughh.

[@RubenvanKuik]

It works well in theatres, but definitely not at home. Thank god for quality headphones.

[@thedanantenna]

Soldier is an awesome movie.

[@ZalmanGuy]

Kurt russell?

[@MrButchersTube]

It really is if you dont want to hear kurt russel talk at all.

[@MISTAWULFY]

I've always liked it

[@lelandgaunt9985]

Another movie that has been slept on.

[@ruddylopez2368]

Love that movie, getting replaced by a younger superior soldier and you get thrown on a garbage planet cause you got old .

[@LtEllenRiplley]

Who was watching the Simpsons in the background and listening to james?

[@netramc5123]

The password is, "They move in herds, they do move in herds!"

[@OsricRexor]

I've always thought of it as H.P. Lovecraft meets Solaris

[@38procentkrytyk]

Stanisław Lem actually wrote other things that are closer to this movie than Solaris.

[@OsricRexor]

@@38procentkrytyk Can recommend something? I have only read Solaris

[@heppatytto90]

Iä! Iä!

[@kiyoaki1985]

I've read most of his novels, I'd say Solaris is obviously the most like this movie, but Fiasco and The Invincible are a bit like this too, so if you liked Solaris you should read those.

[@Davethe3rd]

Board James is showing up during this series. Calling it.

[@davidmanning2859]

Event horizon as describe by director is a haunted house movie in space with a lot of alien and h h Geiger influences. Love this movie, this and dark city are criminally underrated sci-fi movies imo.

[@dvt1393]

Ahh, Dark City. I see that you are also a man of taste.

[@spunkyspaz]

Drinking game: Take a drink every time someone sais "like"

[@randymiller2976]

That might be dangerous

[@jorgemorales1141]

I did this. I'm dead.

[@eMJay1985]

*noise of shattering Glass* :-)

[@andresmartin67]

Your intro.... Wow that was AMAZING!!! That movie really scared me and cant believe Paul W made it

[@mihkelnoot8465]

Everybody told me it was bad but I loved it. Same thing with Mindhunters and Reindeer Games.

[@velocirapper2165]

I absolutely love video rental review vids, keep em coming :)

[@j800r]

I did actually really enjoy this movie. May not be perfect but it had a certain charm to it.

[@sethiest]

22:51 lol. But to be fair that doesn't look like a button. It's probably a indicator that lights up when your entering the disarm code or something.

[@lupinschocolate]

This content is timeless. Thank you for putting this out (Rental Reviews)

[@laurenced2916]

Please do a review of The Fly. The Jeff Goldblum one.

[@liberamente1683]

Cronenberg one would be the good reference. But yeah anyways its a great remake/readaptation ! a classic horror movie

[@plymouth491]

Excellent suggestion.
