Terrifying, Original Movie of VERY High Quality

I'll always remember the first time I saw Alien - I was absolutely terrified. I'd never (and still haven't) seen anything like the Alien in these movies. The suspense and chills were superb! Just waiting for this thing to pounce was unbelievably tense. Weaver is amazing as Ripley and went on to reprise the role for all the sequels brilliantly. In fact she has become as notorious as the Alien! The most frightening concept of this Alien was the fact that it was so indestructable - even having acid for blood. With it's double (or is it triple?) jaws and formidable appearance this Alien is the best ever created in my opinion - and even though it doesn't make that much of an appearance in the first movie compared to the sequels, the scares and jump moments are in abundance! STILL ONE OF THE BEST SCI-FI MOVIES EVER! 5 * * * * *
