I've read some of the WH40 entries on TV Tropes. To pick a quote regarding WH40 movies "...[or just watch] Event Horizon  (which has long been accepted as un unofficial prequel , since the creators seem to have accidentally matched the franchise's premise and style with remarkable exactitude, though not the time period)."

Don't know if that's an accurate statement or just someone making assumptions, but sounds credible to me.

After all, Event Horizon could easily have been written up in some old Black Library anthology, a short story about what happened when Earth invented the first prototype ship with a warp drive and took it out for a test drive. Before you know it, the concept of -and need for- Gellar Fields has become crystal clear.
