I still rewatch Event Horizon like once a year. It really doesn't hold up all that well, but it's a classic that I loved as a kid. I wish Paul W.S. Anderson would do more like it instead of a million terrible movies starring his wife.

Smile was better than I was expecting. It wasn't great, but a lot of cool, creepy imagery kept me interested.

And The Wailing is something every horror fan should see. It's so good. Korean Horror is almost always worth a watch.

The fact that the hell footage, including the blood orgy sequence (filmed with actual adult film stars), is lost forever is the true nightmare of Event Horizon. Another reason to hate Titanic.

EDIT: Context

Oh wow, I knew about the lost footage, but not about the Titanic connection. Thanks!
