I believe Adrian Biddle was a camera assistant (or focus puller - I think the UK terminology is different) on Alien and had worked with Ridley Scott on commercials. Aliens was his first film as DP.
The thing that i hated the most about Event Horizon, and i forget exactly how it worked.For years no one on earth knew what the message was or that it was in Latin, but 1 person on the ship was some kind of Latin expert or something. Just by chance i might add.
The movie is worth a watch, buy if is under $15.
Funny...I just happened to watch the dvd last weekend. I think the movie is great, but I don't know if I would want an extended edition. Behind the scenes features, yes. But, sometimes things are best left to the imagination.
This was shown in High Def some years back, OAR, and the detail was astounding. I have it on D-VHS and it is one of the most detailed 1080i 2.35:1 transfers I have ever seen. Unfortunately the HD version was presented with 2.0 sound. :frowning:
Someone added a 5.1 track and posted it on the internet, so I imagine that must be cool.
This film is flawed, but very effective. There are some sequences that rank among the best horror sequences of all time. Anderson has only gone downhill since.
Well, it appears that the film has been classified by the BBFC and its 91 minutes 56 seconds long (this is the PAL version) which is no longer than the previous submissions so unfortunately its not an extended cut. Paul
They didn't know about the message until they got to the ship and got into the ship's computer logs. At first they could only hear the recording and someone noticed a voice.
The High Def version aired years ago and is among the most detailed transfers I have ever seen. 2.0 only though. A shame it wasn't 5.1 as I would not even need HD-DVD/Blue-Ray for this title.
