"Event Horizon" (1997)
In the year 2047, a space rescue crew boards a derelict space ship that's been missing for seven years. In that time, the ship has reached the end of the known universe... and brought something evil back with it.
I've been meaning to revisit this underrated-as-hell space-horror flick since one of its stars, the great Sam Neill, passed away a few weeks ago. It didn't do much box office business in '97 but it's become a cult item since then, sitting squarely at the intersection of "Alien," "The Black Hole," and "Hellraiser."

"Batman: Mask of the Phantasm" (1993)
There's a new vigilante in Gotham, killing off the leaders of the city's underworld and leaving Batman as the prime suspect. As he investigates, the Dark Knight learns that these killings may be connected to a long-lost love from his early days as a crime fighter.
Theatrical spin off from "Batman: The Animated Series" features plenty of bone-crunching cartoonmayhem and fine voice work by the late, great Kevin Conroy as the Bat and Mark Hamill as the Joker.

I don't want to do back-to-back entries, but I'll drop a hint. There's a book adaptation taking place in 1959 with a 7.9 IMDB rating that's on the National Film Registry.

It is. "but"

QuoteWhile it has since found a second life and generated strong viewership numbers on Prime Video, its theatrical run was a definitive box-office disappointment.

Pretty much what LilCerberus posted.

I wasn't expecting Radu Jude's name to appear at the end of that review. That's probably a bigger/better twist than any in the film itself.  :cheers:

DRACULA (2025): The Romanian one. A Romanian director wants to make a movie about Dracula but he has no good ideas, so he asks A.I. for assistance, resulting in about a dozen absurd short films. A pair of actors are hunted by vampire killers who've paid for the privilege, there's an adaptation of a classic gothic horror story, and Vlad the Impaler appears as a fascistic boss with a robot sidekick, and so on, with each scene including deliberately ugly A.I. enhancements. Mostly obscene, occasionally amusing and sometimes even witty, but you get the distinct feeling Radu Jude made this scattershot satire/parody to amuse himself, not you. 2/5.
