The Undead Symphony
Episode 200: Event Horizon
Our 200th episode and the end of season 6 of the podcast. It is a like a gender reveal party, but rather than blue or pink powder it is just blood and guts in pletiful supply.
Before the Resident Evil series Paul WS Anderson actually made decent movies, starting with Shopping starring Jude Law he went onto making the popular first Mortal Kombat, the one with Christopher Lambert as Raiden. And then came this, 1997, and it was, as Darren describes it "Hellraiser in Space."
So with a lovable cast of Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, Kathleen Quinlan, Joely Richardson, Jack Noseworthy, Sean Pertwee, Jason Isaacs and Richard T Jones, and a director before he became lazy and/or jaded, we have this.
Set in 2047 (so not long to go) it follows a crew of astronauts sent on a rescue mission after a missing spaceship, the Event Horizon, spontaneously appears in orbit around Neptune, only to discover that a sinister force has come back with it.
We talk when we saw it, when we owned it, and when I met Jack Noseworthy...
libera te tutemet ex inferis - save yourselves
We love this movie... it is a solid 7/10 for us
