Alien 1979

"My Mommy Always Said There Were No Monsters. No Real Ones. But There Are." and probably one of the most iconic in film history. The namesake alien based on Giger's design is extremely phallic and undeniably frightening. Who would want to meet this creature in a dark alley or, for that matter, on a large but claustrophobically cramped spaceship due to its presence? Speaking of the spaceship, Ridley Scoot stages the cat-and-mouse game between the crew and the killing machine, which is deadly in various ways. This spaceship looks as if it is lived on and used and thus contributes extremely to the world building, which probably also ensured that so many more or less good parts of the series followed.I must confess that I have always watched one of the newer parts and am glad to have finally seen the first part. "I got you...you son of a bitch."
