Scary Thoughts #120 - Alien (Ridley Scott – 1979) [part two]

Behold! In part two of our conversation about Alien (1979), we get more into speculative territory about UFO sightings, how a trillion dollar space-faring company might operate, and how notes from studio suits always ruin things.  We get more into HR Giger's influence on the film and his firm grip on 90s mall goth aesthetics. We also cover some advice about how to survive in the Alien universe (don't look inside wet eggs) and imagine what products you might make from harvested xenomorph pieces (boner pills).  Also, dear listener, what do you think about us making our way through the franchise? We'll definitely do Aliens; but after that—maybe?
