In the year 2047, a small group of astronauts spearheaded by Captain Miller (Laurence Fishburne), are sent to investigate and salvage the spacecraft “Event Horizon”, a ship that disappeared without trace mysteriously seven years prior. The “Lewis and Clark” rescue ship begins the mission to discover the truth behind the disappearance, only to discover something far more terrifying in the process. A well made Sci-Fi that effortlessly blends various genres.
Fifteen years after brutally slaying his own sister on the night of Halloween in 1963, Michael Myers (Nick Castle) manages to escape from the mental institute that he was being held in, before returning to the small town of Haddonfield, Illinois, to murder once again. An all-time great horror flick and one that featured the birth of an iconic soundtrack that is still commonly known to this day. Halloween is currently streaming on Netflix.
Sometime in the distant future, a seven-person crew upon a commercial spaceship named “Nostromo”, stumble upon a distress call from a planet not too far away. Under obligation to investigate, the group descend onto the small planet, but quickly discover that the original message was a warning, not a distress call, before coming to the realisation that life is in fact prevalent there. Alien still manages to hold up in 2023 as being an extremely entertaining flick. It’s worth noting that Alien is currently streaming on Disney+.
Maren (Taylor Russell) is a young woman learning how to survive on her own, while discovering things about herself that very few people can understand. When she meets Lee (Timothee Chalamet), they join forces and embark on a road trip across America. Despite their best efforts, all the roads taken ultimately lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand that will determine whether love can survive their oddities.
The year is 2104 and the spaceship Covenant is heading towards a remote planet in order to colonise it. The ship’s captain, however, is killed in a freak accident, leaving another man in charge. The newly instated captain then makes the decision to investigate a planet that is nearby, after hearing a rogue transmission. Following the decision to explore the planet, dramatic and deadly consequences start to occur. A fairly enjoyable film that certainly started better than it finished.
The year is 2093 and a small team of explorers, spearheaded by the accomplished archaeologist, Doctor Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace), find a structure on a distant moon, hoping it shows clues to the origin of mankind, only to soon realise they are not alone on the desolate exomoon, LV-223. An appealing film that was somewhat criticised upon its release in 2012 – Prometheus is now streaming on the Display+ platform.
