The Best Horror Film There Is!

Rating: 10/10 (16 April 2005)

If there's any movie that is guaranteed to make your hair stand up on your back, this is it. This is one of the best Sci-fi movies around, as will as horror and thriller.
I've been afraid of this movie since I was five, and now that I've seen, I know that I had a good reason to be.
Alien is the combination of superior acting, an interesting story, great visual effects, an excellent script, fantastic direction, and to top it all off, a very intriguing tag line: "In space, no one can hear you scream."
The best thing about this movie is that you barely see the actual alien. If you blink you'll miss your chance to get at least one look at the well-constructed creature. Ridley Scott does this story so well that it almost seems like this is real like.
I find it interesting that this movie came out two years after Star Wars, where aliens were negotiating and surprisingly human-like beings. This put a whole new perspective of what we thought extraterrestial lifeforms were like.
A must-see for horror and sci-fi fans. A four out of four stars.
