ALIEN

Rating: 10/10 (1 March 2020)

"ALIEN" (1979, Scott) is a masterpiece that hasn't been surpassed by anything in 40 years. I don't know how many times I have seen this film but every time I put it on I'm hooked from beginning to end.
This film has influenced horror and sci-fi in an unprecedented way. There have been countless imitations, in both big and low budget projects, in film, literature, music, tv, games (both tabletop and video) and even cartoons.
Although the premise of this film wasn't exactly new it was so brilliantly executed that it's one of the greatest films ever made.
