A Much Darker Sci-Fi That Works Out Really Well,

Rating: 8/10 (11 September 2013)

Alien is a brilliant movie with a really well developed,clever and unique storyline,a very inspired cast and outstanding effects,especially for a movie that was made in 1979.The movie is considered both a horror and a sci-fi,and although the actual alien is very frightening,there aren't any scenes that I thought really jumped out and frightened me,but I did really like the idea of a sci-fi that is much darker and grittier than usual.This movie is what made both Sigourney Weaver and Ridley Scott famous,and they both continue to star and direct very impressive films.If your a horror fan,I wouldn't really recommend Alien,but I would highly recommend it to all fans of sci-fi.
Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) and her fellow spaceship crew must fight off a deadly alien stowaway.
