I love this film so much that I am posting a second review.

Rating: Null/10 (8 October 1999)

I love this film a lot and am still in disbelief of how much badmouthing it receives. I watch it plainly for the visual style, atmosphere, and production values. It has some of the most chilling scenes of carnage ever. For example, the scene prisoner Boggs is murdered in front of prisoner Golic. The alien giving an evil grin after dumping a large amount of blood onto Golic's face. Or how about that scene where Ripley's relationship with Clemens almost progresses but instead ends with the poor doctor having his skull bitten into. This has to be the most artistic, emotionally charged, and beautifully made motion picture. Now if only FOX could release a director's cut!
