Centered on a rescue team sent to retrieve possessed spaceship from hell, Paul W.S. Anderson’s haunted-house-in-space story delivers consistent scares, disregarding any scientific logic.
The tale begins with a traumatic recording of the previous crew tearing themselves apart, which teases the horrors ahead.
Anderson borrows from “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “Hellraiser” and “Solaris” in its depiction of corridors and chambers that grow increasingly hostile.
In the process, the hero, Sam Neill’s once-rational character, turns against the others for one reason or another.
The demented doctor keeps coming back, with his eyes ripped out and skin lacerated.
