event horizon

Alien
Event Horizon
The Europa Report
Xtro
The Thing
Apollo 18 conceptually. Yes, its a terrible movie, but it has the concept of being stuck in space in a shoddy lifeboat

This thread is shit.

Horrors set in space is not necessarily cosmic horror, you stupid assholes.

>recommends nothing

Hurr

Which horror set in space is so shit that doesn't use the opportunity for cosmic horror?
Jason X?

Critters 4

Putting a face on it turns it from cosmic horror to a slasher set in space. The idea behind cosmic horror is that we (the human race) are just insignificant. No malice or will involved. Melancholia is an example.

This poster: is right. The first 2 acts of Sunshine are an example of it. Then of course it turns into muh slasher.

>the mystery and horror of the cosmos

2001 and The Thing would be my champions

but i don't think I've seen a movie really focusing on the horror of the cosmos. Horrible alien races sure, but higher cosmic phenomenons like hyper-novas are hardly ever seen on screen. Problem is the cosmos has no morals. Hard to build a story around something that doesn't care about anything. No motives, almost no drama. Nice visuals but no script. I mean sure there's the survival angle, let's escape from the black hole or whatever. But then fucking what? It's a difficult theme to tackle in an original manner.

2010 the Year We Make Contact is probably better for brainlets

I would add SGU too. I enjoyed their take on space exploration, the unknown, trying to understand and interact with alien races.
