Time to watch "Event Horizon" again. That movie is one of the very few out there that really gave me shivers. Probably one of the most underestimated Sci-Fi-movies out there. And it really has some moments when it gets you off your guard.

I was interested in this one when it came out, but due to seeing several negative reviews I took a pass on it at the time... maybe I'll add it to my Netflix queue and give it a try.

Stupid scientists.

All that schoolin and they can't even manage to run an accellerator without having protons crashing in to each other.

DUH They had the protons going on opposite directions. Who's bright idea was that?????

Next time have all the protons travel in the same direction and you won't have any more collisions.

Sheesh do I have to think of everything???

It wasn't the scientists' fault, some pencil pusher ordered Toyota Protons by mistake.

I saw it by accident, if I remember correctly, by seating myself in the wrong cinema room, and additonally the sound was too loud, like so damn often these days, that volume level plus the aggressive soundtrack and then the movie really made it an experience. No loss to see it, if that genre is what you are looking for. That beast of a space ship already looks evil by visual design.
