Directed by Paul W. S. Anderson. Screenplay by Philip Eisner (with an uncredited rewrite by Andrew Kevin Walker). Infinite Space - Infinite Terror taglines Captain Miller God help us. [after watching the original crew's final chaotic log] We're leaving. Dr. William Weir You can't leave... she won't let you. Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see. Do you see? Others Lt Cmdr D.J.: (after playing a recording of the ship's log) I thought it said libera te me, save me. But it's not me. It's liberate tute me—save yourself. And it gets worse. (Plays recording) There. I think that says ex inferis. Save yourself... from hell. Dialogue Starck: Black Hole - the most destructive force in the universe - and you have created one? Weir: Absolutely, yes! Because we can use that immense power to bend space-time—look, it would take the Lewis and Clark a thousand years to reach the nearest star. The Event Horizon could be there in a day! Starck: If it worked ... Weir: [Descending to the black hole generator] You can come down, it is perfectly safe! [after watching the Event Horizon's horrific final log entry] Miller: We're leaving. Weir: No, we can't leave. Our orders are specific. Miller: Rescue the crew, salvage what's left of the ship. The crew is dead, Doctor. Your ship killed them. Weir: We came here to do a job— Miller: We're aborting, Doctor! Starck, download the files from the Event Horizon computers. DJ, I want you to get Justin prepped and move him back to the Clark. DJ: There's stuff I want to get from Medical. I've got to move him into a tank. Miller: Not a problem. Do it. Peters, I want you to get the CO2 scrubbers back into the Clark. Take Smitty with you. Weir: Captain... don't do this. Miller: It's done. Weir: What about my ship? You can't just leave her! Miller: I have no intention of leaving her, Doctor. I will take the Lewis and Clark to a safe distance and then I'll launch TAC missiles at the Event Horizon until I'm satisfied she's vaporized. Fuck this ship! [Weir tries to grab Miller, who shoves him back; the lights shut off] Starck: [over intercom] Captain Miller, the bio-scan just went off the scale. It looks like the core is draining power from the rest of the ship. Miller: [into intercom] Get the files. Vacate. I want off this ship. Weir: You can't leave. She won't let you. Miller: You just get your gear and get back on the Lewis and Clark, Doctor, or you'll find yourself walking home. Weir: I am home. Weir: I created the Event Horizon to reach the stars, but she's gone much, much farther than that. She tore a hole in our universe, a gateway to another dimension. A dimension of pure chaos. Pure... evil. When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was alive! Look at her, Miller. Isn't she beautiful? Miller: Your "beautiful" ship killed its crew, Doctor. Weir: Well... now she has another crew. Now she has us. Miller: [after being attacked by hallucinations, realizing who it actually was] Weir? Weir: [cold, dark laughter] The ship brought me back. I told you she won't let me leave. She won't let anyone leave. Did you really think you could destroy this ship? She's defied space and time. She's been to a place you couldn't possibly imagine. And now, it is time to go back. Miller: I know. To Hell. Weir: You know nothing. Hell is only a word. The reality is much, much worse. [Miller is about to deliver a punch to Weir, but the doctor stops and grasps his hand] Now let me show you! [Miller is subjected to visions of his crew being horrifically tortured and killed] Miller: NO! No...! Weir: You see? Miller: [gasping] No... they're not dead! They're not... dead...! Weir: Not yet. Miller: [beating Weir with a CO2 scrubber] YOU! WON'T! TAKE! MY! CREW! [Weir disarms and viciously beats Miller] Weir: They're not your crew anymore. They belong to the ship. Ship voice: Gateway opening. Miller: Take me. You take me, you leave them alone! Weir: No. There is no escape. The gateway is open, and you are all coming with me! [Miller is forced to see more visions] Weir: Do you see? Do you see?! DO YOU SEE?! Miller: [grabs the detonator] Yes... I see. [activates it] Weir: [screaming in terror, denied the other surviving crewmembers] NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
