Light Speed, from 1998, is one of those oddities that straddles horror and sci-fi. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially once the freighter gets lost in that alternate universe. There's a real sense of isolation that hangs over the film, almost palpable. The pacing can be a bit uneven – some slow moments that build dread, then sudden jolts of fear. The practical effects have a certain charm and feel very much of its time, which adds to the overall experience. While the performances aren't groundbreaking, they do have a certain earnestness that fits the vibe. It’s not just about being scared, it’s about exploring the unknown, making it distinct in a sea of genre films.
