Not my favourite movie though. The horror in space trope is a very tired one.
Alongside the poorly lit spaceship. Spaceships are workplaces and workplaces should provide adequate illumination so you can see what you are doing.
But I LOVE what he did for the New Zealand flag.
Australian flag.
* Their Southern Cross is more astronomically accurate (it includes Epsilon Crucis) our one omits it
* They have an additional seven pointed star to represent the six territories/states of Australia, the seventh point being added when they took control of Papua to represent anything else they added to the federation as time went on
* Their stars are white, ours are red
But fully agree, I loved that it the Union Jack was replaced with the Aborigine flag at Sam Neill's behest, because after all, it _is_ the future right?
Pretty sure it's "But I LOVE what he did for the Australian flag." - he is a kiwi but that's arguably the Aussie flag with the colonial bit replaced with the local one

...with very constrained sources of power. Lighting places where humans are not is wasting that power.
Pandorum was pretty crazy (he wasn’t in it, but it was an odd space horror movie, and I feel that Event Horizon kind of paved the way).
Australian flag. The black, red and yellow flag he replaced the Union Jack with is the Australian first nations flag
The part I liked in Event Horizon was Laurence Fishburn's character seeing the logs of the crew going crazy and immediately turning it off and saying, "We're leaving."
Probably the smartest decision made in a horror film. Time to get out of Dodge.
