Review of Alien (1979) by Gregory Weinkauf for Dallas Observer — 21 Aug 1990
This is the breakout role for Sigourney (née Susan) Weaver, whose iconic presence still propels this ride beyond the scores of substandard imitations that followed. Why see it on the big screen? Because it's bloody brilliant.
