Interesting idea of having a sentient spaceship. IT was the villain.


Wasn't Hal 9000 from Space Odyssey basically a sentient spaceship?


A computer AI aboard the ship, actually. Disconnent him and he's done. Your in control of the ship. You couldn't do shut down the Event Horizon the same way.


On top of that, the Event Horizon wasn't sentient because of it's computer system like HAL, but because after it had gone to Hell, it was implied that something had gained possession of the ship. Essentially becoming the Even Horizon.
