One of the GOAT horror movies. Even if they never show the alien really, the set and the way it's filmed lend itself to top-notch horror. But then when we do see the Xenomorph it lives up to the hype and is horror personified. Just an absolute homerun monster/antagonist.

As highly-praised as Alien is, sometimes I think it's even underrated a little.

If Alien is underrated, I would say it is because Cameron did so well with Aliens.

Same universe, different genre, with action being more accessible than horror / suspense.


If Cameron had flubbed it or there were no sequel, Alien is likely remembered even more fondly because of it remaining such an original creation.

My dad tells the story of seeing it in theaters. People literally shite on themselves or vomited from a certain scene.

Would love to watch that movie with someone who’s never seen it before, in theaters of course.
