Like I think this is equivalent to not understanding why Batman’s vehicles are called “the batmobile” or the “batjet”
Batman designs everything with a bat theme. If the batmobile was filled with chains, it would be correct to point out the weirdness of batman filling his car with loose chains.
The spaceship in Event Horizon wasn’t designed to go to hell. The story said it was a regular ship. In other horror movies, regular locations aren’t “horrified” without explanation.
The tugboat in Jaws doesn’t have chains everywhere. The Antarctic base in the Thing doesn’t have chains dangling everywhere. Regan’s bedroom in the Exorcist didn’t have chains dangling everywhere. It was a regular room. Because it would be silly to say “This is a regular young girls room that has chains everywhere because the viewers need to know this is a horror movie.” Oh now the devil has possessed her!
The setting might change after the horror starts. But what would an extra dimensional evil force need to create dangling chains everywhere? Well written movies are internally consistent even when including the supernatural.
Its been too long since ive seen event horizon, because I remember none of that. In my head I’m thinking “wait, there were chains” and “wait the chains were there before it visited hell?”

Clearly I should watch it again soon
