The cult sci-fi horror Event Horizon owes much of its production and costume design to Ridley Scott's 1979 film Alien, which John Mollo also provided the costume design for. Starring Sam Neil and Laurence Fishburne, this visceral film was filmed at Pinewood Studios, and despite Paramount pushing for a PG-13 certificate. It fully deserved the final R-rating it was awarded, the film presents the ghost space ship existing on the boundaries of hell as is deemed as one of the most frightening films of all time.

It was said that John Mollo never watched Event Horizon because it was too scary for him.
