http://www.axelmusic.com/productDetails/097361401546

I remember watching it in the movie theatre back in 1997 and on DVD release few years later...

Heared there was a Directors Cut version to be released, not on this Blu :-(

tacoreed · 12-24-2008, 01:56 PM

I love this movie.

JJ · 12-24-2008, 01:59 PM

I love this film as well, it's so eerie - positively macabre! Great to watch with company and def a first day pickup as well!

I remember not liking this movie back when but it was quite awhile ago. I cannot remember anything about it though so I think I'll rent it and try it again.

Region free ? wow I might be tempted, I love this Sci-fi/horror flick.

I don't remember hearing anything about it when it came out in theaters but it sure has gathered a strong following. Glad they picked up on it and delivered the Blu. This is high on my list of purchases.

ThriceBB · 12-25-2008, 05:27 PM

this movie used to scare the living daylights out of me when i was a kid. ill definitely be getting this!

opterasis · 12-26-2008, 05:21 PM

I picked this up at Best Buy today, tonight I'll see if it holds up as well as the memory of it since seeing it like 10 years ago.

RustyK94 · 12-26-2008, 10:51 PM

The cover for it i think is great. They haven't tried to update it and make look more. It's completely fitting towards the time period it was released in unlike the primal fear cover.

Alien meets Hellraiser. Excellent sci-fi horror film and the blu pq is outstanding.

Its a very intresting movie, but the image is vertically stretched. It can get distracting when watching it.

Its clearly there if you watch it.

’Event Horizon’ arrives on Blu-ray with a fairly impressive 1080p/AVC-encoded transfer that sadly retains a few issues from its latest standard DVD release. First and foremost, the image has been ever-so-slightly stretched vertically, leaving some of the ship’s corridors and crew’s faces looking a bit pinched.

You can tell its stretched in the corridor shot and the screen graphics which should be circular, but look like horizontally narrow ovals instead.
The stretching was not there in the original DVD releases nor in the European DVD releases.
