Insanely underrated and underappreciated.
The first half is excellent with an extremely interesting premise. Then everything spectacularly falls apart and it descends into space-slasher shit. The use of The Prodigy during the end fucking credits didn't help, either.
>>69960638
This is what sci-fi genrefaggot plebs say. It's appropriately rated as garbage. These genrefaggots on teenage-populated pockets of the internet that love this piece of shit are not a coincidence.
>>69960638
agreed...here's my contribution. i still havent met or talked to anyone that has seen it
>>69960667
I'm not a teenager and this movie is kino.
>>69960638
It's great until it gets to the fucking "dimension of pure eeeeeevil" bollocks. Similar to Sunshine.
>>69960638
why do you do that? that movie was terrible
Not remotely, literally everyone knows it's alright
>>69960638
pic related for retards
>>69962594
anyone who doesn't like sunshine is a faggot. this is proven by science
>>69962594
You're kind of right but at the same time, Sunshine goes equally to shit towards the end. If they were going to do that they should have had the baddie go full villain-quip mode.
>i've been out in the sun too long! mwaahahaha
Explain this.
I'm still bitter that the directors cut never got released
>>69960668
>vengence
daily reminder event horizon was a hidden pilot testing the waters to see if the world is ready for warhammer
we were not worthy
>>69960638
Proof that a Warhammer 40k movie would be fucking legit.
>>69962771
It was good for the first 20-30 minutes and turns mediocre afterwards.
It's a better sci-fi horror than Alien is
This space horror gem is always miscategorized as sci-fi and gets all the turbo nerds rustled.
>>69960638
I enjoyed it but a lot of it is a worse copy of Solaris
I like the black hole machine thing in the spikey gyroscope
>>69960638
>we will never, ever see the original cut
>>69962974
(You)
>>69963059
it hurts
>>69962594
good movie with a great cast. those subliminal images of the crew burning really fucked with me when i saw it in the cinema
>>69963066
(You) know I'm right
>>69962771
bloated yes, but pretty good considering
>>69960823
it was weird how, in the first half, Sam Neill's character was at the mercy of weird events.. and then suddenly he seems to be orchestrating them.
>>69962773
it was meh.
Anyone got all the pics from the cut?
>>69960663
>>69960638
I have never seen Romper Stomper mentioned once on /tv/

That's a bretty gud oldie! Sort of an australian and a little rougher This Is England?

>The use of The Prodigy during the end fucking credits didn't help, either.
That's just an untrue statement, every movie should end with funky shit
>>69964501
The entire soundtrack was made up of skinhead songs.
Was discussing Russell Crowe's movies and it came up, as did Virtuosity.
Crowe just shit all over denzel in it.
>>69964561
That track is actually great for the credits! It has a little dark and mysterious vibe to it, but still a lot of energy which is a nice fit right after the tense "OH FUG WUT NEXT?" open ending fakeout.
>>69960791
You may not be a teenager, but you are a fucking pleb.
>>69964668
I thought they were both great but Crowe definitely was having the most fun in it, what do you expect, he's playing a serial killer made in a video game brought into a robot body in the real world.
Man what a great movie.
>>69964806
*tip le fedora*
cool story, old man
you truly are the definition of patrician, my good friend
The Lizard.
Con serving life escapes prison by posing as a visiting cleric. He is taken in by a backwater village where his bizarre sermons and incidental good deeds earn their respect and give the town a new energy.
>>69964806
shilling bad movies is a meme, consider yourself baited
god tier
eric bana is awesome in this one
>>69964820
Had the time of his life. The effects being dated didn't phase me at all watching it, Crowe was too engaging.
Tulpan.
A young man recently discharged from the navy, stays with his sister and brother in law as he attempts to find a bride and live as a herdsman on the steppe.
this one is incredible, sequel is still good but not as powerful as the first
shame this movie isnt mentioned more often.
if anyone has seen four lions and liked it, then you'll like this one also
refn's best work along with his pusher trilogy
>>69965123
That's my go-to recommendation for non aussies keen on watching aus movies.
Bandit Queen.
Based on the life of Phoolan Devi. Surprising brutal for a designated movie given how fucked their censorship laws are.
best sports movie ive seen
>>69965301
gtfo you clown
takes a little long to take off but then it gets fucking intense as hell
>>69960638
Yes OP, I see
>>69964257
Well he became more an avatar of the ship rather than a character himself
Speaking of Sam Neil, this one is another absolute gem that somehow failed
>>69960638
Loved the medieval castle feel in that room with the "torches"
>>69965321
b-better than Slap Shot?
The Dancer Upstairs
A jaded lawyer turned detective heads a task force investigating a sudden series of terrorist attacks by a fanatical Marxist group.
>VIVA EZEKIEL!
>>69965241
I know it's not really a favourite out there, but I liked it!
>>69965374
Ah, nice. I've been having it on my watchlist for some time now, don't even remember why.
Not gonna let any goddamn illegals badmouth Event Horizon in here though!
>>69965514
slap shot is awesome, but the damned united takes the cake for me. everything was done right with that movie
>>69965374
pretty sure we all properly rate and appreciate this onesay you're from reddit. from the heart!
>>69965290
those are actually good, they don't belong in this thread
>>69965570
I'll give that a go.
Blind Shaft.
Black comedy. Two miners discover the perfect scam, bouncing from one pit to another befriending other migrant workers, pretending to be their family before killing them to collect compensation. It's a blatant stab at modern Chinese attitudes to human lives and capitalism. I have no idea how this got made.
>>69965641
i just think theyre very underrappreciated

I usually recommend Two Hands
>>69964668
>The entire soundtrack was made up of skinhead songs.
Weren't they ersatz skinhead songs to avoid having to pay royalties to actual racists?
>>69965796
he film's score was released by Picture This Records. It included the orchestral music and the energetic punk rock music similar to the Oi! genre (recorded by studio musicians).
White Power labels have bootlegged the RAC tracks and released them on a 7" many times since the soundtrack's release. In 2011, a Russian WP label released the whole soundtrack on a 12". The RAC songs are often misattributed to real RAC bands on peer to peer sites, with Skrewdriver being used often. The band is also often called "Master Race" due to Peter Pales's German-language monologue in the beginning of "Pulling On the Boots". Some people have also considered the Australian punk band the Bastard Squad to have done the soundtrack, due to the line "Jason from the Bastard Squad" being in the thank you section at the movie's end credits. The actual versions of the RAC songs used in the film are earlier versions to what ended up on the commercial CD - most obvious being "Fuhrer Fuhrer", which plays in the scene after Hando is notified about Vietnamese being at the Railway Hotel - Clifford-White's intonation is slightly different and there are no backing vocals in the chorus.
>>69965790
It's mostly been US servicemen that ask me about aus movies, I tell them Breaker Morant.
The Bothersome Man
A man stumbles upon a utopian city where death doesn't occur, there are no children and it's citizens occupy themselves with interior decoration. Fucking horrifying.
>>69960638
Perfect Kino
>>69965096
good shit
>>69965149
good shit, also watch The Raid if you like this shit
>>69965321
>not Miracle
Absolute Hundred.
When an up and coming target shooter discovers his war veteran/ former Olympian brother is heavily indebted by his heroin addiction, he decides to confront his drug dealer.
>>69966454
my fuckin niggaAGAIN.
>>69965224
my nigga. one of my favorite underrated movies. first time i've ever seen it mentioned on /tv/
>>69965224
Great movie. When hes under the bed tho
>>69960638
Agree.
I watched this a few months ago and I shitted myself. But like most of terror films, the end is kinda weak.
I like how the hell scene where the captain of the ship bends over and gets fucked by a female crew member wearing a strapon basically suggests that homosexuality is an incredibly debased and abnormal thing, which is very accurate
>>69966981
I watched it the other day, I must have missed that bit
>>69966476
>first world problems the movie
>>69966981
>guy getting pegged
>homosexual
I bet you even see homosexuality in the mirror.
>>69967141
Is this you?
>>69967068
>>69967068
Yeah it's kinda hard to make out because it's visible for like only 2 or 3 seconds whilst the shaking camera is panning across the room, but if you keep your view focused at the star navigation chart in the middle of the bridge you'll see it easily
Also, during several of the subliminal gore/torture stills within the FTL/interdimensional drive core room you can make out a bunch of garden gnome figurines in the background very faintly, just pause and screencap and you will see i'm not making this up heh
More movies should start with Sarah Silverman getting her face punched in during an opening scene that has no relation to the rest of the movie whatsoever.
>>69962594
Was really good until the end where gravity and momentum are suspended in lieu of dramatic tension.
>>69963092
This too.
>>69967141
You are a gigantic faggot.
>>69960638
This movie is one of the better sci-fi horror films out there. I wouldn't say 'insanely underrated and underappreciated' though. It has people who like it because it's kind of great and people who hate it cause it's kinda stupid.
I think pic related is underrated and underappreciated.
Thought this would be terrible, turned out to be one of my now favorite movies of all time.
>>69965123
Is that the "harden the fuck up" guy?
>>69968224
That movie proved to me that if you make something bad enough eventually it wraps all the way around and becomes the most amazing thing ever.
>>69960668
>vengence
is this poster real?
>>69968483
> bad
I legitimately thought it was funny. It also followed the source material very well.
Monkey cgi was lame tho
>>69968819
I did too, but I can't process the idea of something made by Uwe Boll being good, therefore the exact opposite must be true.
From the moment that cop shot the old lady at the stop light I don't think I was able to stop laughing for more than a couple minutes in the entire film.
>>69960663
How can it descend into a slasher when thats what it is?
>>69960823
>Similar to Sunshine.
They're both great, I don't know which order to recommend them to people in; the question is whether a batch of movies is best watched in order of increasing realism or craziness.
>>69960638
>underrated
really? eveyone i know who saw it says it was great
>>69960663
So, Sunshine then? I agree.
>>69962594
what was so great about Sunshine?
>>69972103
you must only know shitty people
>>69972153
Same thing that was great about Event Horizon. The atmosphere, a realistic space setting, and a good cast.
>>69972571
Is it as bad as event horizon, or is it even worse?
>>69972704
If you didn't like Event Horizon you wont like Sunshine.
>>69972704
I'd say its better but the problems are very, very similar. It doesn't have demons and magic like EH though
>>69962710
I loved the ending.One of the key questions that arises during the film is whether or not humanity even deserves to be saved, and since that is crew's mission you need an ideological counterpoint to challenge that idea. Pinebacker is that challenge given a physical form for the crew to interact with. He's not so much a man as he is a representation of all the reasons humanity deserves to be doomed. PInebacker is entropy, corruption, death, madness, obsession, fanaticism, cynicism, and violence all thrown together.
The crew itself isn't exactly a beacon of goodness. Hell they spend most of their time fighting with each other throughout the movie; they're divided, distant, selfish, and actively avoid cooperation. It's only when Pinebacker shows up to challenge the veracity of their mission that they're able to rise above their differences, work together, and are willing to selflessly sacrifice themselves for the greater good to prove humanity is worth saving.
Classic in 10 years, mark my words
>>69975097
Nah
>>69975306
Yah
>>69960638
Terrible movie, absolutely fucking dogshit.
Here is an underrated and underappreciated sci-fi movie.

It's worse than the miniseries, but it's still really good.
>>69960638
Agreed
>>69962771
i fucking loved that movie
top teir sci-fi kino
that stupid bruce willis movie ruined any chance this movie had of making it
>>69977320
For me this was like "my father kicking ass" the movie. Only in that movie was Sean Connery exactly like my father. It was uncanny yet awesome.
>>69962771
This was a great movie. It did have pacing issues though and the mystery of it all was better than what was actually going on, but it was still solid.
>>69980233
One of my top 5 ever.
>>69960668
Movie is from Quebec. Its in french. i seen it in theater here.
>>69960663
I always felt like that really didn't fit the tone of the movie lol. NIGHTMARE END WAKE UP
OHMYGODTHAT'STHEFUNKYSHIT
>>69962771
Waay too heavy on the monsters. If the monsters were a psychosis apart of pandorum and were unseen or vague, and it was purely psychological, it would have been GOAT.
>>69982383
fucking this. it had potential but ended up going full generic
>>69973912
holy shit
someone else who actually fucking gets it
>>69977320
I don't need eyes to see how much of a fucking pleb you are.
