Alien Movie Review: The one that started it all. (Halloween Special)

Its Halloween, so why not review one of the most iconic films of all time? Alien is almost forty years old, and even today it still holds up.

In 1979, audiences were graced (and terrified) by the release of Alien, directed by Ridley Scott. The film was a commercial and cult success, sparking off an iconic franchise that would later collide with another iconic franchise (Predator). Even now, almost 40 years later, Alien still holds up today. Granted there are a few technological issues that one could chuckle at due to the era that the movie was made in, but the thrills are still there. Full review below:




So how do you rank the Alien Franchise? For me its:

Alien
Aliens
Alien 3
Prometheus
Alien Resurrection 
AVP
AVP: Requiem

Alien is my all time favorite horror movie. It builds tension to perfection and the payoff is great. It also introduced us to one of the most terrifying movie monsters ever.
