Alien

from Magellans at the Movies

Who knows what lurks out in the near infinite darkness of space? Giant glowing babies? People with funny eyebrows and no emotions? A large, angry, purple dude with a love of handwear? These are just some of the options proposed by the long, rich history of science fiction films, some more pessimistic than others, but few more likely to put the brakes on a young child’s dreams of becoming an astronaut than the terror of Alien, a 1979 science fiction horror movie directed by Ridley Scott. Alien memorably incorporates an industrialism-fused vision of the future alongside the uncanny stylings of Swiss artist, and the worst possible choice to teach a sex-ed class, H.R. Giger to the delight of audiences for decades since its release. What say the Magellans at the Movies to this horror classic? That, my dear reader, is the subject of today’s episode.
