If someone asked me to name the one good movie Paul WS Anderson made, I’d have to say… Event Horizon.
And I’d not be alone.
His 1997 sci-fi horror is, to this day, a remarkable bit of cinema with an advanced spaceship called the Event Horizon having returned after even years missing somewhere beyond our universe and a team including Sam Neill and Lawrence Fishburne sent to revere it.
The problem is, the ship seems to have been in a hell-like dimension… and it’s brought something back with it.
Yes, it’s a haunted house in space movie but it’s elevated by an excellent cast, impressive direction and a hell of a lot of atmosphere.
And… it’s coming to Amazon as a TV series produced and directed by Godzilla vs. Kong and Blair Witch director Adam Wingard.
How exactly Event Horizon will fit into a TV series is anyone’s guess… although, I’d like to see a prequel showing what happened the ship and crew when they vanished out of our dimension. Now THAT would be a hardcore bit of TV.
I want to hear your thoughts about Event Horizon on the small screen, folks…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
