I just watched this.

The part where they watch the video of the Horizon crew fucking eachother then eating eachother was gnarly.

This is what happens when you enter The Warp without a psyker and without the benefit of the God Emperor's Astral Beacon. It's so clearly The Warp I find it distracting.

The movie is still a great piece of sci fi horror though. Would recommend to anyone who likes those things.

Did they ever find ALL of the cut content for this film or is it still just the extras from the dvd release + the slaanesh rape, orgy and torture buffet from the ships log?

The additional scenes that were cut in 97 have never been recovered.

No. In the commentary the director says they were lost and it sounds like on purpose. The studio didn’t like the project.


One of my all time favorites.

One thing I always liked was the sound in this movie. I saw it twice in the theaters and the audio made this so much more intense.

The air raid siren in Silent Hill also did a good job.

This movie, In The Mouth of Madness, The Thing, Dawn of the Dead, and The Crow were in near constant rotation for me and my friends in highschool and college. The are nearly endlessly researchable.

Rewatched this not too long ago. A few of the scenes looked goofy now adays, but this movie actually held up a lot better than you might expect. It's not one of my top sci-fi movies, but it is only a small notch below the likes of aliens to me. If there's anyone here who hasn't watched it, definitely worth your time.

Fun note In the Mouth of Madness is part of John Carpenters Apocalypse Trilogy.

I don't like Prince of Darkness all that much (it's fine, it's just not something I'd seek out to rewatch more than I have) but goddamn if it doesn't have a couple really amazing scenes.

I do have a soft spot for Ghosts of Mars though.

The thing is probably objectively my favorite horror movie of all time. It gets almost everything perfectly right.

The first time I watched this I was home sick with a fever and this movie fucked me right up. Between the captain holding up his eyeballs to the flashing scenes of body horror when the fight at the core happens at the end, I actually covered my eyes while watching a movie for the first time in my life.

I will say that was the scaredest I was ever watching a movie. I blame the fever. But it was a while before I was able to watch it again.
