Review of Alien (1979) by Brandon S — 26 Jul 2013
What this sci-fi horror masterpiece boils down to is quite simple: a monster movie in space. That's what you're getting at the end of the day, but you're also getting brilliant direction from the great Ridley Scott, an incredibly commanding lead performance by the wonderful Sigourney Weaver, bone-chilling, atmospheric music by Jerry Goldsmith, and a collection of revolutionary special effects.
This is a well-oiled machine of a horror film that functions highly on every conceivable level.
