    First tell me what you're contesting. Are you saying it's without merit as a sci fi?

    I have my problems with Event Horizon and it wouldn't be one of my favorite Sci-fi films, but it deserves to be in this competition. It doesn't deserve to win it, but it earned its spot.

    It certainly has merit as sic-fi, thought I see it as more horror. I just did not see it as garnering any votes, especially more than The Time Machine. No big outrage.

    I laughed all the way through Event Horizon. The only thing funnier than the idea it should scare me (granted, I was already over 30) was the idea that it's supposed to make sense!

    I second and third that. One of the worst films I've seen in a while. Interesting idea, poor execution.

    OK, add another vote for Fire. I voted only 4 times in this bracket so a late vote is better than no vote.

    Note
    Guys if you want to add or subtract a vote after you have already cast your votes please send me a private message, sometimes I don't have a chance to read every single response in the threads, especially when they're not addressed to me.

    Thanks.
