Alien 1979

Ripley is an amazing character. Sigourney found the perfect balance between control, exhaustion, survival, and drama. Just like how Ridley found the perfect balance of sci-fi, horror, and drama. The drama from the horror and the horror from the Sci-Fi. I kept asking myself, "Who or what is THE villian?" We are kept in the unknown from the beginning to the very end, and the tension that builds is extraordinary. The editing was clunky, but the production was immense. The cgi was awful as expected, but the sound design makes you feel much more. A film that could be made at any time in history.
