About This Event
QUAD in Derby presents Paul W.S. Anderson’s 1997 sci-fi horror *Event Horizon* on Friday 19 September 2026 at 7pm. The story follows a rescue crew sent to investigate a long-lost spaceship that has mysteriously reappeared near Neptune, only to discover the vessel is haunted by a malevolent force from another dimension. Renowned for its grim industrial aesthetic and unrelenting sense of dread, the film blends *Alien*-style claustrophobia with cosmic horror and visceral practical effects. This big-screen showing will highlight the deep, rumbling sound design and shadowy cinematography that have cemented the picture as a cult favourite. Tickets are available via the QUAD website.
The screening features a film set in 2047, where a rescue vessel investigates the Event Horizon, a ship that reappeared after seven years following experiments with faster-than-light travel. The crew discovers a garbled transmission and finds that something is toying with them.
The film stars Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, Jason Isaacs, and Joely Richardson.
The event includes an introduction by Johann Chipol of Cult Film Club.
