#EVENT HORIZON MOVIE#
The movie never quite works out which pseudophysics handwave it intends to use for the ship's FTL capability: Weir talks about how the drive uses focused gravitons, implying that it uses the immense gravity of the black hole in the core to bend space, or, more glibly, that the ship works by warp drive his demonstrated metaphor works more like a wormhole however, the events that actually transpire suggest it was some kind of hyperdrive."You break all the laws of physics, and you seriously think there wouldn't be a price?" William Weir, as he puts it, had to work around it, which is where Folding Space comes into play and the cause of everything that happens in the movie. It's noted in the film that the FTL Drive the Event Horizon supposedly has can't work because of the Law of Relativity stating that FTL travel is impossible.Apocalyptic Log: " Libera te tutemet ex inferis." The final, decoded version of this log entry, which places those words into context, is one of the most (in)famous examples of this trope in cinema it's even been referenced in South Park.Antagonist Title: The ship is heavily implied to have become alive and demonic after passing through Hell (or some kind of hellish alternate dimension).The meaning of the door closing behind the survivors and rescue party is unknown: it might mean that the chunk of the ship they are in has retained its evil conscience and thus the cycle is gonna start again, or maybe it only symbolizes the wordless trauma they have lived and that they will never get over it, as told by Starck's uninterrupted screaming at the end. Ambiguous Situation: The very ending of the film.This comes to an abrupt end when the crew find the ship's log. Not played quite so straight later on, however: At some point Weir found out what was really happening the hard way, being corrupted or possessed by the force responsible for said goings on, but kept up the pretense for a while to try and keep the crew around so they could suffer the same fate. Agent Scully: Weir keeps trying to think up increasingly ridiculous explanations for the obviously supernatural goings-on aboard the Event Horizon, long after everyone else accepts that something weird is going on.
Unless you count the possessed-by-evil ship itself.
The ship has reappeared in a decaying orbit around the planet Neptune, and the rescue ship Lewis and Clark is dispatched to investigate. The ship had disappeared without a trace beyond Neptune seven years earlier. In the year 2047, a signal from the starship Event Horizon is picked up on Earth. Anderson where astronauts investigate an experimental ship (the eponymous Event Horizon) that disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
