60 of 378 · most liked firstMy favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Eye trauma, space trauma, and an amazing set piece with the spinning blades and rotating core. Who else loves this one?
positive · AI labelView post →Now rewatching Event Horizon (1997)! 📽
positive · AI labelView post →Event Horizon holds up WAY better than I thought it would. Just a gorgeous and outstandingly original and creepy movie.
positive · AI labelView post →When I was a kid I taped tons of stuff off the TV. Imagine my surprise when I popped in one of my many tapes labeled “Space Ghost” and watched a few episodes when suddenly it switches to a movie I had no recollection of recording. Anyway that’s how I first saw Event Horizon, RIP Sam Neill.
positive · AI labelView post →Happy 28th anniversary (of the US release) to Event Horizon, a kickass space horror movie that could’ve truly been transcendent had the studios not forced it to release early because Titanic was running late
neutral · AI labelView post →The Sam Neill tributes will rightly focus on his achievements in Jurassic Park, The Piano, Hunt For the Wilderpeople etc. But he also gave what I think are three of the greatest horror movie performances of all time: Possession (1981), In The Mouth Of Madness (1994) and Event Horizon (1997) .
neutral · AI labelView post →When filming Event Horizon Sam Neill demanded that the Union Jack be taken out of the Australian flag and be replaced with the Aboriginal one making the film a part of anti-colonial history

neutral · AI labelView post →Actor Sam Neill had that idea when he played an Australian astronaut in the film "Event Horizon" (1997) set in 2047. He asked for that design, saying he thought by 2047 Australia would celebrate its Indigenous history. #InvasionDay
neutral · AI labelView post →Sam Neill truly was a legend. One of my favourite movie details is the patch on his sleeve in Event Horizon which he requested because he was a supporter of Aboriginal rights.
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay, so this is crazy. 🤯 In Event Horizon, a film from 1997, Sam Neill requested that the Australian flag on his character's uniform be replaced with a photo of Lionel Messi bathing the baby Lamine Yamal, the way he thought it should look in 2047! 👏👏👏
neutral · AI labelView post →Movie app: “Watch again:” Me: “Watch again? Why would I watch the same thing again? There’s too much to watch here and there ñ isn’t even my only movie app! Watch again. Get outta my face with that.” Also me: Watching Event Horizon for the 7,419th time.
positive · AI labelView post →it's in the Western culturesphere enough to produce Lost Horizon, the 1930s novel and then film that embeds the idea of Shangri-La (Shambhala) as a magical utopian retreat from the world. However, it also gets taken up by hollow earthers, a *different* species of crankery that predates this.

Anderson, it stars Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, Kathleen Quinlan, Joely Richardson, Richard T. Jones & Jack Noseworthy. #Horror #16mmInferno

neutral · AI labelView post →About Event Horizon (1997) Sam Neill: "It's funny how often that film comes up of all the films I've made. And it's not that it did particularly well. But people seem to have seen it and it just sort of sears itself into their imagination or something."

neutral · AI labelView post →Beloved actor Sam Neill (1947-2026) has died. Adored him in so many films, esp. "Jurassic Park", "The Dish", "Hunt for the Wilderpeople". In "Event Horizon" set in 2047, he asked for this 👇 Australian flag design, saying he thought by then Australia would celebrate its Indigenous history.

neutral · AI labelView post →Honestly last nights screening of Event Horizon was one of my favourite events ever . If at 21 after watching Event Horizon opening night & thinking ‘Now that’s my shit’ I’d known I’d be official involved with film 28 years layer I’d have lost my mind. Lots of gratitude and joy to have this life.
