A question almost every individual considers in their lifetime is this; do aliens exist? Where? Would they help save human kind? Well the movie Alien reminds us that the aliens do not want to save human kind. I really feel this movie brought about a platform for sci-fi movies to excel upon. The quality of the movie for the time was unbelievable and not to mention, horrifying! The fact that alien blood can essentially melt human skin, flesh and bone is a hysterical concept! By far, the first movie is my favourite in the Alien series as it was so new and refreshing compared to previous, almost cartoonish depictions of aliens.

Alien is one of my favorite sci-fi films of all time. The visual effects are outstanding for 1979, especially when they got onto the Zenomorph planet. Speaking of which, the Zenomorph is super terrifying and really cool-looking. The atmosphere is dark, scary, and incredible. The story is very good, however, the story is not the star of the movie. The characters are so likable and fun. Ellen Ripley is a great protagonist and is also brave and courageous. Lastly, this film is great at giving scares when the audience least expects it. For any fan of horror, sci-fi, or movies in general, this is a must watch.

SF 호러영화이자 전설의 시작 물론 다 보았지만 7살 아이의 기억과 두려움은 믿을게 더이상 되지 않기에 뿐이라 다시 보았다. 79년도에 태어나지도 않은내가 이영화를 본다면 무조건 5점 만점에 5점일테지.. 지금봐도 괴리감이 그리 느껴지진않지만 이미 에이리언은 대명사가 되어버린 시대에 태어나, 에일리언 첫 등장에도 알아보는 나는 감흥을 느낄수 없어 ㅜㅜ

Dark, claustrophobic terror with characters you care enough about to feel trapped with the monster right along with them. A classic.

Best science fiction movie ever made! This is a movie I find myself constantly recommending and suggesting to friends for movie night. The whole series is amazing and this film is the start of it. For such an old film it does a great job with being realistic with such a far out storyline. The main character is such an inspiration as a strong female that can be praised by all for her bravery and intelligence. I recommend the whole series

This was the first horror film to make me scream out loud. It is a perfect example that you don’t need flashy jump scares and gore to scare your audience. The tension is palpable throughout the entire film. It is impossible to watch this film without an elevated heart race. Not to mention Weaver does an amazing job at playing this incredibly bright and powerful woman. This is the kind of film that will give you nightmares, just forewarning you.
