@@mrbuck5059 While Pandorum was quite a good movie that managed to establish a proper ambiance of dread and impending doom with creatures that are actually scary at times, even more so when you start to guess what they truly are AND also managed to pull off a second master feat by including a good mystery with a good twist, it was a bit long due to some pacing issues and had its fair share of plot holes (although understandably, any movie that ambitious, trying to do more than one thing at once by trying to keep a proper survival horror climate while slowly unraveling the mystery will always have some plot holes, even more so if it takes the risk of including a twist at the end). Reading your comment and talking about Pandorum really makes me think: I've got to watch this movie again, I've only seen it once and it's been a while. Which is the sign of a great movie! I just think that it's not as impactful of a horror movie as Event Horizon (also must rewatch this Masterpiece), which really takes the cake by being much more scary. Pandorum, while having a lot of survival horror in its DNA, is focusing more on the mystery elements of the story while being scary at the same time. I can't quite put my finger on it more than I have tried to... Pandorum felt a bit goofy at times due to the creatures and some weird characters appearing out of nowhere that feel a bit out of place, like the "space ninja", and something also felt a bit off in the execution of the climactic scene at the end... As I said, I really have to watch it again to refresh my memory and make a better comparison, but I hope you get the gist of what I'm trying to explain.

This movie has a very "diverse" cast and is in line with nowadays political agenda: Two women, two black guys, one is flirting with white females suggesting an interracial interest, the other one is the commander of the ship and overall boss, intelligent and professional. The evil guy is a white middleaged male. Yet nobody cares, everything suggests that each of them attained his position through competence, their racial origin and gender don't matter. Every character is respected, no "higher moral" is pushed down the throat of the audience and everybody is competent in his role. Seems like 20 years ago we were closer to Martin Luther King's dream than we are today.

Fun fact about the film and it’s creation. It was as primarily inspired by Warhammer 40,000 by the creator of the films own admission (particularly it was the writer of the film). Particularly (while he personally never gave details) the inspiration mostly comes from what happens when the Gellar Fields(a type of protection shield) fail when traveling through the Warp(aka *Literal* Hell on steroids and the *only* means humanity has of Interstellar travel). And it is so much like 40k that some see it as a (unofficial) 40k prequel when humans first invented the Warp drive, but didn’t invent Gellar Fields yet, and this was what prompted their invention.

It's a good horror movie. It does a good job of creating an atmosphere of creepiness to keep the tension up, without having to overuse jump scares. Not that it doesn't use jump scares. But when it does it is usually well done - such as when Weir is in the tunnels.

I disagree with The Critical Drinker on the end credits music - it's Prodigy - Funky Shit ffs, Prodigy ain't no the techno neither - it's rave. And I love the Prodigy.

It could be seen as a movie about the first Warp drive without a Geller Field, and the first interaction with humanity and the Chaos realm.

This movie has some of the most disturbing images I've ever seen, I mean, there are scenes of people basically eating each other. The shower scene in Psyho left it up to viewer's imaginations, Event Horizon showed us just about everything in graphic detail. You do realize that after Dr. Weir says, Hell is just a word, that the reality is much, much worse, that he goes on to say, let me show you and proceeds to show Captain Miller images of hell, right? "Do you see, do you see, DO YOU SEE?" "Yes, I see. " Showing horrifying and graphic images is a bit more than hinting in my book. Using words would have been hinting, they have limited power, they can describe things, but there is nothing like seeing it with our own eyes, and doing so makes it real. Images are powerful, they create reality in our mind, such is the difference between watching a movie and reading a book. But as Dr. Weir says, and I will concede, hell is only a word, we will never know the true nature and horrors of hell unless and until we experience it for ourselves in full. Yes, there were certainly psychological elements involved, but there was actually very little left to the imagination in this movie, they showed us everything in great(and glorious) excruciating graphic detail, for those who wanted to see it.

If I remember correctly the ship is in a decaying orbit around Neptune. It's orbiting at a distance where the drag of the atmosphere is slowly decreasing the ship's orbital speed down but not yet creating structural stresses or problematic heating compression. This created a ticking clock for Weir as there would be no time to return to Earth (or somewhere else) and mount a second salvage operation.

The fact they didnt pull any punches, like the torture orgie scene, not cheesy, pretentious and appropriately offensive to the eyes, as you should expect. When evil is present in this movie, it's like you actually feel it, it's not some bland jump scare, it's not relying on a soundtrack, the build up is appropriate and just has an utter inescapable grim feel to it, that makes the horror mean something. Not to mention, intellectual enough to be thought provoking as well.

If I recall, after having watched an interview with the lead designer of Dead Space, they said they were heavily influenced by this movie.

Like you said, most horror movies have to come up with ever more contrived reasons why the victims don't just leave or call for help. I loved how genre savvy they were that in the moment when many of the audience, myself included, are about to yell "JUST LEAVE!", our captain busts out "we're leaving", followed not long after by "fuck this ship". Yes! Thank you writers for writing characters who make believable decisions, then coming up with why they can't, rather than just having the characters be a bunch of dumb asses because that's what makes the writing easy!

Random Sources: "In test screenings, the cut was poorly received. There were complaints about the extreme amount of gore,[7] and Anderson and producer Jeremy Bolt claim members of the test audience fainted during the screening.[6] Paramount, which had stopped looking at the dailies before any of the gore was shot and were seeing the completed film for the first time along with the audience, were similarly shocked by how gruesome it was and demanded a shorter length time with a decreased amount of gore. " Source 2 - www.mandatory.com/culture/1263775-heres-youll-never-get-event-horizon-directors-cut-sequel "There was a lot more that was shot that isn’t in the movie. But you’ll never see the messed up version because we made Event before the kind of DVD revolution. You know, DVD ushered in this era when you had to have additional footage, deleted scenes, things like that. There was no call for that back when we were just doing VHS cassettes and LaserDiscs. So the material just wasn’t archived very well, and since the movie became a big cult classic, Paramount have asked us to come back in and do different versions and we looked for the material, and it just doesn’t exist." Source 3 - Wiki - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_Horizon_(film): "Anderson believes that while his first cut was justifiably considered too long, Paramount forced him to make a cut that was instead too short, and that it would benefit by restoring around 10 minutes of missing footage, including some of the deleted gore.[6] After a successful initial DVD release, the studio and Anderson became interested in assembling a director's cut but they quickly found out that the excised footage had not been carefully stored and that much of it had gone missing. The deleted scenes were stored in a salt mine in Transylvania and had rotted away due to how they were stored in the mine. The plan to assemble a director's cut was abandoned and instead a special-edition two-DVD set was released that featured one deleted scene, two extended scenes, and a few shots of deleted material in the included making-of. The footage is of "video" quality.[6]"
