Join hosts Nick, Stephen, Cam, and Katherine on this spine-chilling episode of Gen Wars as they debate whether Event Horizon truly deserves the title of ”scariest sci-fi horror movie ever.”
The crew dissects the haunting journey of a rescue mission that encounters a possessed spacecraft with a sinister, hellish secret. The film, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, stars Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, and Kathleen Quinlan in this high-stakes cosmic thriller.
With tensions running high, the crew explores the movie's thematic ties to Alien, The Shining, and Hellraiser, while reflecting on its creepy set designs, haunting atmosphere, and unforgettable practical effects. But does its rushed editing and questionable CGI detract from its potential? Nick and Cam think it holds up, while Stephen and Katherine aren't as convinced.
In this episode, you'll hear passionate arguments, deep dives into character motivations, and insightful reflections on how Event Horizon still influences horror and sci-fi today. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer, the Gen Wars crew provides the ultimate generational perspective on this cult classic. Tune in to find out if this movie is truly out of this world!
