I was watching Event Horizon the other day, and it got me thinking... If you've not seen it let me fill you in, warning some spoilers await! The film is about a space ship, the Event Horizon, which has the ability the travel between two points in space instantly, via a wormhole. However it vanishes on its maiden voyage, and reappears years later, sans crew. Then a crew go to investigate and ghostly evil going ons ensue. Dr Weir, who built the Event Horizon and is with the investigation crew, is the only one who knows that the Event Horizon knows that the ship actually goes into another dimension when it travels to this other point in space (if it actually goes there). With me so far? I'm not explaning it so well. Anyway I found out that the film got an NC-17 certificate in the states, which I've heard is the 'kiss of death' of a film in American (I don't know what an NC-17 film is!) so to attain an R rating he had to cut a fair bit of footage. Most of the footage concerned is footage that refer to this other dimension as hell. I suppose I wanted to know why Americans, or at least American sensors are so scared of people viewing images or concepts of hell? For the record the film never once states that the ship goes to hell, but take into account Dr Weir's obsession of getting back to his wife who committed suicide and the sanatic style death orgy that the crew find on the ships log would seem to suggest this, even though all other references had been removed. I noticed they did this with the movie Doom, the game was all about hell coming into our world, but in the film it was refered to merely 'another dimension'. So why do all these references to hell have to be removed? I am aware that America is one of the most religious countries in the world, but as the states prides itself upon free speech i find it weird that it had to protect people from this kinda thing. What do you guys think?
