Review of Alien (1979) by Kingjames — 28 Feb 2015
This movie is a classic. Being only 20 years old I had never seen this movie originally or the 2003 re-release. I own the 35th anniversary bluray edition. I watched it as soon as I got home and I was blown away.
I had seen so many of what others from 1979 and onward had try to imitate in suspense and horror. This is one of the horror/suspense classics that started this genre and made it a staple. The atmosphere of it all is unmatched.
The retro-futurism is classic. The style of it is almost minimalistic, a "less is more" approach. I just cant praise this movie enough.
