Event Horizon was pretty sadistic for a big-budget release. I say that as a compliment. I liked the film a lot. The fast-cut torture subliminals were very creepy.
I like Lawrence Fishburne a lot but Sam Neill irritates me in Event Horizon for some reason. It seems like there's no clear-cut turning point in the film for him to become a villain.
I'll be interested to see the director's cut.
