You guys are great, I just love your reaction to this movie! We saw this movie in the theater in 1979 and I couldn't believe how good and scary it was. When we left the theater we couldn't even talk about the movie, and we always talked about whatever movie we'd just seen. Unfortunately, I won't be able to join you on the next Alien mission, but my cat has volunteered. Her name is Ripley. Oh, and this is mostly one of my favorite movies, mostly.

I was 17, and saw it in a big "Cinerama" theatre (I think that was the equivalent of the modern IMAX theatre). The only actor I really knew of was John Hurt from the BBC drama "I, Claudius". I certainly didn't know who director Ridley Scott was. Alien really scared the hell out of me. There's not that many jump-scares in there, but the slow buildup of tension was what did it. I hadn't really seen anything like it before. I was "twitchy as" for a couple of weeks. When Ridley Scott released Blade Runner a few years later I thought "no way", but someone persuaded me to see it and I loved it. Since then I've really enjoyed his visual style of storytelling.
