In Reply to: What? Pinnacle of horror sci-fi, perhaps. 2001 and Solaris are the pinnacle of the genre. Alien is posted by tinear on March 17, 2011 at 13:31:41:
Alien was freekin awesome. We saw it at a single plex which was at the time the largest theater in Texas (Medallion center). A teenager in front of us had evidently dragged his younger brother to the show. About the time the cyborgs head came off and he was spilling green juice out of his neck and was telling the crew they were fucked, the kid in front of us screams, "TAKE ME OUT OF THIS GODDAMN MOVIE!" He went on for quite some time. Older bro wouldn't relent. I wondered what that little kid's dreams were like for the next week. He cried continuosly for some time. My dreams for a week were basically Alien induced nightmares.
Best sci fi movie of all time after 2001 which was_just_totally_different.
