You're so keyed in to the music! I do that, too! Maybe a reason it didn't win the Oscar is because Ridley Scott swapped in Howard Hansen's Symphony No. 2 over the end credits: it was a beautiful and iconic choice (even if it justifiably angered Jerry Goldsmith), but possibly some Academy voters thought it rendered the score "incomplete."

One of Ridley Scott’s best films. If ALIEN is one of the best Sci-Fi horror films of all time then James Cameron’s ALIENS is one of the best Sci-Fi Action films of all time. Perfect time to watch ALIEN since May 25th marks the film’s 45th Anniversary! Also this year on August 16th in theaters we have a new film coming out called ALIEN: ROMULUS that is helmed by Fede Álvarez (Director of EVIL DEAD 2013 reimagining and DON’T BREATHE) and it takes place in between Ridley Scott’s ALIEN and James Cameron’s ALIENS. A cool thing to know about the film is the original effects designers from ALIENS created all the practical effects work.

Phenomena 1985 with Jennifer Connelly this film inspired a video game franchise called Clock tower 2.: Frogs 1972 all I'll say is nature comes back for revenge 3: Rats: Night of terror: 1984 :The woman who becomes a demon after putting on a mask in the film Demons, is in this. 4: Death on the Nile 1978: This has a cast of iconic actresses Maggie Smith, Bette Davis, Angela Lansbury, Mia Farrow 5. Puppet Master 1989: Chucky wouldn't last 5 minutes with this group lol 6: Intruder 1989: the creator of Evil dead and his brother have acting roles in this gem. I give kudos for coming up with a new location then the usual areas a horror takes place. 7: Haunted Honeymoon 1986: I thought we cleanse the pallet with a little horror comedy. I've only this to say about it... You're going to Love Aunt Kate.

You might like it because once the main characters get into the place you forget your're in space and in a ship. the film is called "Magnetic Rose" I think it's a mid 90's film maybe 80's. a space crew get a distress signal, they investigate and when they get inside the ship ...Girl they walked straight into Versailles. it's like astronauts just stopped into a rococo phantom of the opera vampire lair. It gets worse when they discover an insane woman who owns the ship who haunts it through deadly holographic cyber bots and laser shooting cubid bird fountain statues lmao! one thing I pre-warn it is an animated horror, but has been dubbed a forgotten masterpiece.

Yaphet Kotto and Billy Dee Williams don't get the total props in their part in two of cinema's big sci fi franchises. The props being at the time that Williams appeared in Empire Strikes Back and Kotto appeared in Alien, they were the two recently active biggest box office STARS that were in those films. Kotto was the only one in the cast to be the headliner in his own films up to that point and williams was a big star who also headlined his own movies in the seventies compared to most of the cast in Empire. But sci fi/horror fans ignore this fact.

Harrison ford who was in star wars became a bonafide star in box office after empire when he did raiders of the lost ark. before that he didnt headline a movie or proved he was a draw yet.

All of the subliminal sexual imagery you thought you saw in the film, you actually did see. Alien is laced with it. If you re-watch the film with that in mind, you’ll notice that subtle, and not so subtle, sexual imagery seems nearly everywhere. Alien is based on the art of Swiss surrealist, H.R. Geiger. Google his name along with the term, Necronomicon’. Geiger’s art is a mix of bio-mechanical horror, and sexual stimulation. Ridley Scott masterfully includes Geiger’s art to heighten the horror of Alien. Fear, and sexual arousal both set the nervous system on alert. They are two sides of the same coin, as it were. Scott laces Alien with sexual cues so to sub-consciously stimulate the audience’s autonomic nervous systems. Then, when something scary does happen, it’s all the more fear inducing.
