Mattie Lewis is a St. Louis-based writer and co-host of The PodHand - a podcast delving into Kentaro Miura's Berserk, dark fantasy, horror and all things grimdark. She joins us to discuss a singular work in the sci-fi/horror canon, Paul W.S. Anderson's 'Event Horizon'. We chart the film's troubled production history, extol the virtues of Anderson's workmanlike approach to his craft, and explain why attempts at film comparisons fail to capture the potency of the movie's brilliant idiosyncrasies.

Apologies for the audio issues on this one! Sometimes we record onto a grapefruit instead of a computer.
