Disney's 1979 The Black Hole Was Creepy

Back in the day I recall this movie while in its entirety not being creepy, there were always bits here and there that were. The opening main title song and one of the last scenes were two. I combined them together for you now. Maximilian was a scary robot. Sleep tight.

    The way I see it looking back...it makes some sense....I think Reinhardt made Maximilian to do the hard things that he felt needed to be done. That way he could disassociate himself with the evil being done on the ship IE turning the crew into mindless slaves. Maximilian was his Evil Nature. After going through the Black Hole...his worst fear is realized. He and his creation are one and the same and that is his Hell.

    Like Faust, the guy summons a demon to do his bidding and the demon has an agenda of it's own. In the end like the demon Maximilian's actions ends up taking Reinhardt down as well, just like Faust. From that perspective the movie was genius story telling.

    This is why Reinhardt whispers to Kate "protect me from Maximillian" because his creation is an extension of himself; his murderous intent. When he called out "help me" to Max after being crushed by the monitor, it wasn't to save his life, it was to help him kill the Palomino crew.

    Surrealism is what makes this scary as fuck. Like we have the same things in the Alien universe. However they are not scary movies, because they are based in science and realism and not surrealism. The black hole only becomes scary when he heads for the black hole and stuff happens. These things are to be found in pans labyrinth as well, or hell raiser.

    I truly 💯 agree with you, Peter , this is my favorite Disney sci-fi movie, it's not like Star Wars, you can't compare the two movies, the black hole has its own plot and storyline, a mad scientist is obsessed with the black hole turns his entire crew into robot zombies, builds a monster robot and sentry henchman. So Reinhart ending up in the heart of the Black Hole, in Hell, in prisoned in Maximilian is poetic justice. This movie is creepy cool with great visuals and even creeper instrumentals.🤖👻🍿I agree that it was like a haunted house in space.

    An interesting movie. I wouldn't call it a "good" film by conventional standards, but as the first Star Wars knockoff out the gate, it presented some intriguing themes and ideas. Think of it as Disney's remake of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, but skinned over in Star Wars lite imagery. Also, consider that Alien came out the same year and Empire Strikes Back would be released the following year and it's easy to see why this film has become a forgotten gem. I think some of the same reasons that kept Black Hole from gaining a foothold in pop culture is also what stymied Tron, which came out in 1982. Just an embarrassment of riches 1980's fantasy films were. It would not be until 1989 that Disney would make their comeback. The late 60's and 1970's were a struggling period for the studio and it seemed like they were throwing everything at the wall and hoping that it would stick.

    The original director who worked on the project for years died unexpectedly. This was a good movie with many memorable moments, but with more care, it could have been a great movie. I was bothered by the clearly visible wires moving the robots around, and I did not find the 'trash can' robots funny. I love Slim Pickens, but using him to voice one of the stupid looking robots was a mistake. The cast was strong and the music score was superb.

    Just from reading the comments on literally every Black Hole video, I'd say Disney owes a solid percentage of North American male 40 somethings a substantial emotional and psychiatric damage settlement. I remember seeing Reinhardt inside of Max at the end. My young mind immediately rationalized that he had been mangled, maybe carved impossibly to fit physically, and that was just part of his torment. Perched atop perdition, forever witnessing the carnage he wrought, trapped inside an implacable metal coffin that represented his own most evil aspects given agency. His own prison, his own devil. He has no mouth, but he must scream. Yeah. Pay up Disney. Lol.

    When we went to Orlando in 1998 they had Max hidden in one of the Hollywood rides and when the crowd came by his visor light would turn on and there would be a loud humming sound. Kids would scream, so the next time we went Max was a static prop display. I'd love to see him go up against a few Cylon Centurions.

    Can we stop for a minute to think about the fact that: Disney created a sci-fi film designed to compete with Star Wars, Alien and a resurging Star Trek...and at the end of the day, they create a sci-fi film that was not only a really good action film...it was more meta and deeper than ANY other sci-fi film it was up against at the time. I think this is an underrated classic, I'm so proud of the fact that I saw this in the theater!

    The Black Hole is one of the best sci-fi movies ever, it was nothing like other science- fiction movies such as Star Wars or Star Trek. The Black Hole had it's own plot and storyline. It was a haunted house in space or a haunted spaceship 🚀🤖🍿. Mad scientist who is obsessed with the Black Hole turns his entire crew into mindless zombie robots and builds a monster robot and sentry henchmen. He wants to go into the Black Hole and take you with him. Ha- Ha. This movie was creepy cool with an ominous soundtrack that was almost seems like a living part of the movie 🍿. It doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be a nail biting, edge of your seat, scary thriller.🚀🤖🍿

    I had always assumed this was somewhere inside the black hole, and that it had some sort of mystical powers that caused Reinhardt to end up merging with Maximillian and ending unless on this hellish landscape. What I never understood was why his "companions" ended up there, too since they hadn't caused harm to anyone. I guess no one will ever understand this ending.

    Not just the hell part, The Black Hole is also a Dystopian film as well, as you notice people on a ship become more robotic than Bob and Vincent, but the other part is that the storytelling follows a similar pattern as Dante’s Inferno, where you go deeper and deeper into Hell, or the starship Cygnus, until the flames show that you have reached the innermost circle of Hell. Then get expelled from Hell because you don’t belong there.

Such is his crimes that he even fears Maximilian, such as when he asks the woman to, “protect me from Maximilian.” Now as a truly ironic form of punishment, his torture in Hell is being merged with Maximilian. He cannot escape the crimes of what he has done, now that he has merged with his weapon.
