    Check out this first time watching horror reaction video for Event Horizon, and see if I can make it as a horror movie rookie. Horror is a genre I've barely explored, mostly because I'm a huge wuss. Typically my Halloween movie viewings consist of Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown. This year I decided to expand my horror movie knowledge and try and watch these horror movie fan favourites.

      @@ichbinmenschlich7936 I figure the Eldar can use the warp, but they really prefer not to. This lets them use Webway to get close to a location, then 'tune' the ship for stealth mode, then slip into the warp for a quiet dash to the destination. But they would rather spend an extra 2 weeks in the Webway getting to a good destination, than spending 1 day longer in the warp.
      Essentially:
      Choice 1: 3 weeks in Webway + 1 day in Warp

    I have a suggestion I don't see reviewers do much: Peter Jackson's DEAD ALIVE, also known as Braindead. It's widely regarded as the goriest movie ever made. I would have to agree. It's not scary and actually has lots of humor and silliness, but it is gory and disgusting as you can't even imagine, and has some of the best practical effects ever seen. It came out in the early 90s before CGI was really a thing, and the movie is so much better for it.

      Wanna hear something interesting? The one you saw in theaters is a cut down and edited version at 93 minutes. The original cut was 130 minutes and had the test audiences fainting, on account of the graphics being much more... intense. Intense enough that Paramount demanded that cuts be made so that the audience could get through the movie. Paul W.S. Anderson wasn’t happy then, and is still unhappy, given that Event Horizon gained a following, and he is currently kicking himself for not personally saving a complete original cut.
      In 2012, an original cut was found in a salt mine in Transylvania (of all places), but to this day, Anderson has not reviewed the footage.

      @@RyunosukeHachi Not sure about the Transylvania part, but I think salt mines were often used for storage because they tended to be relatively large, thermally stable environments. Unfortunately, the reels stored in this mine weren't properly sealed and so were badly degraded.
      Honestly, I think Paramount had the right idea, insisting on the movie being toned down. You can't really enjoy a movie if you pass out halfway through.

    I have a recommendation for you if you're interested. It's a movie called Suspiria (2018). It's a remake of an old film and is widely considered to be far better than the original. It's about a group of witches who run a prestigious ballet studio.

    The front part of the ship was the life boat, and the explosion gave it enough distance to not get sucked in. I was thinking that, even if the ship is still possessed, without the gravity drive it can't return, so hopefully SOMEONE can blow it up and get rid of what's left!

    15:05 That 'crawling through the Matrix' labyrinth of coloured corridors somewhat reminds me of the Canadian horror/sci-fi movie Cube (1997). Worth a watch if you haven't seen it already. A low budget but effective cult film (it won the Best Canadian First Feature Film at the 1997 Toronto International Film Festival) and spawned a sequel and a prequel (that unfortunately aren't as good as the 1997 one).

    Oh my sweet summer child with you're in for a head trip. Wherever the ship went it brought back pure darkness and chaos. The ship started feeding of their most deepest dark fears the true evil within all of us. The capt. of the Event Horizon had a thing for speaking latin so that's what you heard him speaking. The other members of the crew just devolved into their most basic dark cravings, lusts and base dark evil side. This movie kind of took the idea from the Forbidden Planet of the idea of the Id and just tapped into out darkness and cranked it to 11.
