In space, no one can hear you scream

And it truly is so.
I remember watching this movie the first time in the late 80's. It scared me senseless, of course I was only about 8 years at the time. Later I saw it again on a sattelite tv channel, and liked it better. After renting it on VHS, I bought the DVD and I must say, everytime I watch it I just like it better and better.
Not only is the acting good, not only is the directing good, not only is the shooting very well done, not only is the artwork splendid (thanks to Swiss H.R. Giger) but the music is also superb. Jerry Goldsmith is a genius. I don't think I've seen a film who had Jerry Goldsmith music that I didn't like.
Ridley Scott did a brilliant job aswell. I really like his movies, well, the few I've seen anyway. The cast is great. Especially (spoiler) Weaver's solo performance towards the end (end spoiler)
Especially fascinating is of course, H.R. Giger's artwork. I won't go into detail but is amazing. The Special FX are by 1979 standards very good. (Spoiler) The landing sequence in the beginning is extremely well done. (end spoiler)
Definitely, a movie I'd recommend to everyone.
