Event Horizon (1997)

2015. First permanent colony established on moon. 

2032. Commercial mining begins on Mars. 

2040. Deep space research vessel “Event Horizon” launched to explore the boundaries of the solar system. 

She disappears without trace beyond the eighth planet, Neptune. 

It is the worst space disaster on record. 

2047. Now…

Event Horizon. 

Sci-Frightmare Month began with Ridley Scott's 1982 dystopian science-fiction masterpiece BLADE RUNNER starring Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer, continued with 1958's drive-in classic THE BLOB starring iconic action star Steve McQueen as the world's most haggard teenager, and then we witnessed an (allegedly true) alien abduction in the mountains of Arizona with 1993's FIRE IN THE SKY starring D.B. Sweeney, Robert Patrick and James Garner. 

Along the way we've talked about totalitarian governmental regimes, the age of the local horror host and UFO's...how can we possibly cap this month of programming off? By going to the edge of the solar system and boarding a ship that's been to HELL!!!

Starring Laurence Fishburne (THE MATRIX, MAN OF STEEL), Sam Neill (JURASSIC PARK, DEAD CALM), Kathleen Quinlan (APOLLO 13, THE DOORS), Joely Richardson (THE PATRIOT, NIP/TUCK), Jason Isaacs (the HARRY POTTER series of films, THE PATRIOT), Richard T. Jones (VANTAGE POINT, PHONE BOOTH) and Sean Pertwee (GOTHAM, DOG SOLDIERS) and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson (RESIDENT EVIL, ALIENS VS. PREDATOR), EVENT HORIZON was a box office disappointment upon its initial release, but has since garnered a cult following with a remake from Amazon in the works. 

Join Dan and Faith for a look back at the film as well as a discussion of evil places and ley lines. Stay tuned for a special news editorial from Mario Manicotti, the Cake Contractor, addressing the impending supply chain crisis. Commercials include Chicken Bitz from Welsh Jennings, a teaser for CONSPIRACIES and a new spot for the Dark Depository. Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready to howl at the moon because it is time for the LATE NIGHT FRIGHT, only on WKMF Cozy Corner Public Radio!
