When the original Alien came out in
1979, it sacred the piss out of millions of viewers. At the same
time it managed to by nominated for 4 Academy Awards winning one
award for Best Visual Effects. Alien was followed by a
successful sequel which was nearly as scary, in
"Aliens". The third and fourth could hardly compete with
the original "Alien" and the sequel but they are
definitely worth watching. Although the Alien movie series might
fall into the sci-fi category, every installment is sure to give
you a scare. |
