Scary aliens jump and grab you - why else watch this movie?

Rating: 8/10 (20 March 2005)

I've been reading and using the IMDb for several years now - and it amazes me how much time people spend analysing scary movies. In my opinion all the comments about being cheated by the studio, director etc etc show a great disservice to the people who put time and effort into bringing this movie to our screens. Yes it was generic - yes it was a pure chase in the dark by big monsters - but it did give me that "its behind you" fear buzz - and if I were a bit younger I would be hiding behind the sofa. Why else watch a film like this if you are not prepared to be scared? I would even give it number three ranking in the Alien genre - after Alien and Aliens of course - because it treated the theme with respect.
