Dustin Hoffman in Sphere
Although Michael Crichton is best known as the author of Jurassic Park, the writer was actually responsible for another ‘90s thriller called Sphere. The sci-fi adventure follows a team of scientific experts who find themselves on a mission to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, where they’re supposed to locate and examine a crashed spaceship. Just like Jurassic Park, the film plays with humanity’s innate fear of the unknown and the dangers of scientific ambition.
1 Sphere Had A Terrifying Premise & Setting The Depths Of The Ocean Are Just As Frightening As Jurassic Park Undeniably, the scariest part of Sphere is the setting: having an entire sci-fi journey take place at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean is a genius idea, as it takes advantage of the natural fears that so many people have. It’s dark, the waters are filled with unknown creatures, and perhaps most importantly, there’s nobody around to hear you scream.
Without dark, gripping performance and his character's deep skepticism, Sphere wouldn't be anywhere near as effective as a commentary on science.
