Frightful Friday Flix: ALIEN (1979) - Sponsored by Tina Meow Fulton

Eureka Theater

Don’t let the outer space setting fool you—Ridley Scott’s 1979 masterpiece is straight-up haunted-house horror. Small band of humans trapped in a confined space with a monster that relentlessly picks them off one by one.

But while the film’s structure is familiar, the script introduced elements rarely seen before—a badass female protagonist (Ellen Ripley, as portrayed by the smashing Sigourney Weaver); an extraterrestrial organism that looked absolutely…well, alien; and an outer space that was cold, unforgiving, and deadly.

For a generation that grew up with the clean, well-lit adventureland of Star Trek and Star Wars, ALIEN definitely put a gulp in the throat. Come see it on the big screen, and remember: in space, no one can hear you scream. But they can in the theater. Do what you gotta do.

1979 | 117 min. | Rated: R | Admission $5.00
