Ok, for starters I don't get scared often during movies. I typically laugh at supposedly 'scary' movies and horror movies don't turn my stomach the way they're supposed to. I've grown a rock solid foundation and reputation on the fact that nothing bothers me, including death. Sadly I could watch a snuff film eating a bowl of cereal and not be any less the wiser or moved. With that being said, Event Horizon scared me on a whole new level. The writer (philip eisner) has to be sick in the head.
I won't spoil the movie for anyone but the overall plot stems around a machine that can transport people away through 'wormholes'. So instead of hopping a plane from NYC To London, you'd turn this machine on and flip a switch and be there instantly. Problem was that in its dry run, the space ship equipped with this machine went off the grid, and then surfaced again years later with a really cryptic scary message coming from the captain in latin that said "save me". So they send a whole crew out into space using typical space travel to find out what happened. Thats when shit hits the fan and you find out where this ship has been, how crazy the creator of the machine was, and all sorts of good one-liners from laurence fishburne. Creeped me out badly....so I bought the DVD.
