The 1997 sci-fi horror movie Occasion Horizon (watch it HERE) could not have been one in every of director Paul W.S. Anderson’s extra financially profitable tasks, nevertheless it does appear to be one in every of his hottest and revered films. Presumably essentially the most extremely revered of the bunch. Loads of the movies he has made since have had horror parts – the Resident Evil movies, Alien vs. Predator – however none have been as darkish as Occasion Horizon. And Anderson instructed Selection that he’s desirous about getting again to “full-on horror” territory.
Talking with Anderson to mark the twenty fifth anniversary of Occasion Horizon, Selection requested him if he would need to make “one other full-bodied horror movie like Occasion Horizon“. He responded,
Completely I’d. I’m truly planning on doing a form of straight horror film within the close to future. It’s one thing I’ve all the time been desirous about. My profession has gone extra in an motion path, nevertheless it’s all the time been form of scary motion. I’ve all the time tried for some nice jumps, even within the PG-13 films I’ve made. However I wish to embrace doing a extra full-on horror film, completely — one which works extra on a psychological stage, a return to what Occasion Horizon was.
Earlier than he will get round to creating this full-on, psychological horror film, Anderson will likely be directing the George R.R. Martin adaptation Within the Misplaced Lands. A movie that may star his spouse Milla Jovovich (The Fifth Ingredient) and Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy) – and sure, could have at the least one scene of these two preventing one another.
Occasion Horizon is unquestionably my favourite Paul W.S. Anderson film, so I’m glad to listen to that he’s desirous about making one thing else alongside the identical strains. I’ve been underwhelmed by his work extra typically than I’ve been impressed by it, however I’d gladly watch one other critical Anderson horror film.
