Review of Alien (1979) by Kristin B — 12 Dec 2016
Having grown up during the success of the Alien franchise but being too young to watch the films, going back and watching them now is interesting already knowing so much about the plot. Nonetheless, the original Alien movie holds up, and despite its futuristic setting, it still plays into our basic fears of the unknown and being trapped in a confined space.
The cast is excellent, with a particularly kickass but nuanced performance by Sigourney Weaver.
