Idea: Event Horizon - UNCUT...

I hate to piss on everyone's bonfire here but those are just screencaps from the already available DVD/BD

they are the 1 frame images that appear during the hell sequences and the finale

I think this link backs my claim up 100%

yes but those images in the links provided are from the already released DVD/BD

the article saying "take a look at the Event Horizon you didn't see" is misleading because those images ARE in the film

you can see additional footage here (from the bonus features of the BD / DVD) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK1debnXYlA 

if you want to see UNSEEN footage, try looking for the original EPK's ;)

there was additional footage of Justin discovering the Gravity Drive (snippits of dialogue and shots of him being wowed by the complexity of it)

there was also behind the scenes footage of this scene

 plus, Anderson cut the gore back to give it a "less is more" effect as explained in Fangoria #170

"While the story revolves around a space rescue team having their worst terrors turned against them...Anderson wanted to avoid having the film become "pedantic" by skirting over this issue in some of the characters...Cooper,for instance, was losing someone close to him, which is represented in the movie by the unfortunate accident that claims Justin...Justin also lost some backstory that provided a stronger explanation for why he enters the ship's strange vortrex...The feelings that Stark has for Capt. Miller are also glossed over in the final cut...Other trims included a detailed explanation for the gateway & the black hole, which Anderson thought confused the test audiences. another lost moment was written by Seven scribe Andrew Kevin Walker and involved a subtle homage tp 2001:A Space Odyssey...cutting down the gore was not a major issue..."My feeling about gore is that if you hold on to it for too long, for the first second it looks great,the second its not scary,the third you start noticing that someones intestines look a bit like rubber and by the fourthit's by God,they ARE rubber."...don't expect the missing 1/2 hour to appear anytime soon on DVD..."

Perhaps the most visceraly promising film of last summer Paramonts SF/horror entry....though it never lived up to the 'event" part which many put the blame on it's truncated running time of 95mn-trimmed from a 2 hour rough cut!

It also mentions that the theatrical version was how PA wanted it & felt th tight editing kept the suspense & story moving forward. (Though you never know today if this is the truth or not)


Some of the cuts....

The greatest fear of Cooper(Richcard T. Jones) was loosing someone close to him,which is represented in the film by the unfortunate accident that claims Justin.

(PA wanted to"skirt" over these issues with some charecters so it would'nt become "pedantic")

Justin also had some backstory + a stronger explanation for why he enters the strange vortex.

The feelings that Starck has for Capt. Miller were also glossed over in the final cut

A much longer & detailed explanation for the gateway & black hole which PA felt confused the hell out of test audiences because it offered "to much" extra info.

A homage to 2001.....when the crew first enters the ship.....there was a floating tooth with a single shot of the bone still attached. So instead of the space station turing in 2001,it was this tooth!

The gore was also cut down though was'nt a major issue for the diretor who felt that shortening cutting away really fast has a stronger impact.

 

if anything, the DTS CD-ROM's that borisanddoris has are grabbing my interest. saw this twice at the cinema and was blown away by the audio mix for it. made it much more intense

the home video 5.1 (on DVD and BD) didn't come anywhere close

one scene in particular is the opening scene with Wier in his little pod. the scene where he's shaving and pauses whilst looking in the mirror had an eerie silence then he continued shaving, the moment after when the pod window opened was so loud and made us all jump out our seats

you listen to that bit on the BD / DVD and it's just too quiet

plus the AR is screwed on the BD. too vertically stretched as seen here http://forum.lddb.com/viewtopic.php?p=36964#p36964

I think you are missing the point and fighting a war that did not need fighting.

Point of thread: Uncut VHS found, can we get hold of it to make an uncut version?

Not the point of thread: look at those pics in the link 

Not at all trying to start a war. Point i was making - simply the pics in that link do not represent the uncut VHS, just in case anyone was getting the impression that it was. As shown here where members thought it was screencaps from the uncut version until it was pointed out -> http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=226222

doubt that uncut VHS will be leaked as it's in the hands of the producer as noted in this inteview -> http://collider.com/paul-w-s-anderson-resident-evil-5-retribution-interview/181527/

I LOVE "Event Horizon" ("Punto di non ritorno" in italian, that means "Point of no return"... why they change titles in that way, it's a mystery to me...)

If I have well understood, dvdmike wants to use the uncut VHS as reference, while using the BD and/or DVD deleted scenes as actual footage, right?

It will be a lot of hard work... so, count me in! (^^,)

if the BD is going to be used, is it possible to fix the AR so it doesn't have that stretched look? unless there is a HDTV capture flying around somewhere?
