The terror begins when the crew of a spaceship investigates a transmission from a desolate planet, and discovers a life form that is perfectly evolved to annihilate mankind. One by one, each crew member is slain until only Ripley is left, leading to an explosive conclusion that sets the stage for its stunning sequel, "Aliens."

Summary: Incredibly good suspense film
Comment: This is an amazing film that has so much suspense and atmosphere it truly pulls the viewer in. There's plenty of shocks which are excellently timed, and when the alien does appear it doesn't disappoint in the least. The cast are all superb and the direction is incredible.
A fantastic film.

Summary: Alien- Amazing Female Lead in SciFi/Horror Classic
Comment: When I first saw this in the theatrical release, I was stunned: an amazing female lead (Weaver) and a mind-bending, artistic look. The very essence of this movie is also what you DON'T see- the "alien", instead you see dripping water, shadows, you HEAR the screams, but what's causing them??? Where is it? Great ensemble cast too and forget the cornbread...
Amazing. Watch it with the lights out and no interruptions. I dare you...

Summary: Ridley Scott's finest hour!
Comment: This truly is Ridley Scott's finest hour. Here he makes an absolute masterpiece in the movie industry. He does everything superbly to create a fantastic movie offering richly detailed sets, ominous atmosphere, relentless suspense, fantastic storytelling and great special effects for it's time which still are hard to believe how good they are. This is truly a horror classic in the genre and is still largely popular and recognised today. Alien is as close as you would come to an excellent and polished science fiction/horror. This 2 disc set is great also with with excellent picture quality and a really great commentary track by Ridley Scott.
Sigourney Weaver is phenomenal as Ellen Ripley and delivers an outstanding performance as the lone survivor who takes on the alien. If you have been living in hyberspace and somehow haven't seen this classic yet I suggest that you pick it up immeaditaley for it doesn't disappoint.

Summary: ONE OF THE BEST SCI-FI FILMS EVER MADE
Comment: I decided to buy this movie because I've read many reviews saying it was a great sci-fi/horror film and after seeing it, I truly believe it is. I personally did not find it as scary as some claim it to be, but very intense. As for the "director's cut dvd ", it is far more. It includes the 1979 theatrical cut and director's cut both with commentary tracks and a three-part, three-hour making-of documentary. The new restorations are the best I've seen on any film let alone a film from the 70's. I highly recommend it to any Sci-fi fans or fans of movies in general. A modern classic. 9.5/10
