You might find the sequel, Aliens, a little more to your tastes. It's more Sci-Fi/Action than it is Sci-Fi/Horror, although there are still some horror elements in the film. However the action parts really help to minimize their effect.
The other sequels can be skipped entirely. Alien 3 tried to go back to basics and make it a Sci-Fi/Horror, but most of the characters were unlikeable and not worth rooting for, and the visual effects were trash. Then Alien Resurrection was so bad it became an unintentional comedy, with equally bas VFX.
So definitely watch Aliens. I would recommend the Director's Cut with added scenes. It's about 20 minutes longer than the theatrical cut, but there's some important scenes in those 20 minutes.
You should play Alien:Isolation...just saying
Just don't watch the fourth one
You really don't want to
You should do a reaction to the sequel - Aliens. It is actually a different kind of movie than the first.
And if you think Ripley was a bad ass in this, wait until you see her in the sequel. One of the all time iconic BA female characters in movie history.
@@ys32s37 That would be mean.
The Mighty Jingles, a 40+ year old 20+ yr Royal Navy vet quit that game.
The actor who played Parker passed away a few days ago.
RIP Yaphet Kotto
Aww, damn. Didnt know that.
@Trevor Rogert Not in this movie
@Trevor Rogert lol there are plenty of movies where that is not the case plus why bring race into it? By that logic people might as well complain that nearly all characters who die in horror movies are white when it comes to Western movies or Asians when it comes to Asian movies.
Rip... He was 81 if I'm not mistaken
@Trevor Rogert I believe the first actor from this film to die was also the first character in the film; John Hurt, sadly.
Mary's reaction to the chestburster scene was adorable. I knew she was in trouble when she stated that she knew that movie wouldn't be that graphic because it was made in the 70s. "Alien" was like, "Hold my beer." ;)
That statement by her is laughable at best. Texas Chainsaw massacre and Exorcist came out of the 70s along with Hallowern
@@nhakana The original The Last House on the Left was hella brutal and it came out in the 60s or 70s
@@bwestacado9643 The Last House The Left would put her into a coma, that's the most traumatic movie to watch I know about
@@TheCryptofHorrors-DerCryptaxis It's horrifying because it's something that could, and probably has, happen
@@bwestacado9643 It's intensely realistic; I watch all the content on a disc when I collect it and to get all the commentaries I had to watch it five times, which I did consecutively.

"This movie is so old that it's considered pretty tame by today's standard"
15 Minutes later: "OH MY GOD! I'M GOING TO THROW UP!"
Was gonna say people were throwing up in the bathrooms and leaving the theatre when it came out. And it's still pretty terrifying even now.

43 years later, and this is still one of the best sci-fi horror movies ever made.
This, the Thing, Invasion of the Body Snatchers and so on are such classics of sci-fi horror.

The 'Alien' is obviously terrifying, but for me the darkest part about the movie is the sub plot / conspiracy involving whatever company sent their ship into space to secretly set down on "lv-426" without the crew knowing, and being totally expandable if the specimen they picked was dangerous. They're basically just ordinary working class people, their demise is tragic.
expendable
Basically they were space truckers, transporting "product" to earth from remote locations
Bezos: Well if you're just gonna die and 💩 yourself, you really won't need those defection bags will you? It's the least you can do since you destroyed the chestburster. Which would've been an amazon prime exclusive.
Expandable working class people 🥴
Aaaah! The Weyland-Yutani "building a better worlds"! They will never failed to entertain me!
So, interesting fact, Ripley's actress was made a sci-fi/genre star after this movie, but when it came out she was a complete unknown. In fact, the deaths in this movie started with those who were most famous at the time and worked down to the least famous in order. An aspect sort of lost to time.
"Alien is so old it's not considered a horror anymore."
DO TELL.
Aliens is an action movie.
@@RoodeMenon Yes, but she was watching Alien.
Biggest lie ever. Alien is legit scary.
There is a legit disconnect when watching older horror movies. Like Frankenstein or Dracula.
Alien faded so ?
ALIEN was way ahead of its time for many reasons. It pushed the limits of horror, the special effects were ground breaking, and Parker almost lived until the end of the movie.
And he was the only person other than Ripley who was worth a damn
HA the black guy always dies first theory of horror lol
lol.
One of my favourite quotes:
"It’s not as if anyone’s going to remember that critter once they’ve left the theater.”
- Robert Aldrich, in the interview that lost him the job as director of Alien
Everyone makes mistakes.
@@user-io7fp5jv5i It was Ridley Scott that wanted Giger for the design of the Alien. If Aldrich didn't had a strong vision for "the critter" then it is better for him too to have passed on the job.
@@user-io7fp5jv5i Some are bigger than others.
It's also just a silly thing to say. At the very least, "Star Wars" had already proven that creatures could have a lasting pop-cultural impact (eg Wookies).
I worked as an usher in a movie theatre in 1979. The entire theatre reacted the way you did at the chest -burster scene but even more intensely . It was 1979 after all & we had never seen anything like that before.
Must have been EPIC to go in to see that scene over and over. I was an usher during the Doors and some horror film I forget. We saw the Doors over and over again, so much fun back then with films weeks even months in the cinema.
You have to watch Aliens, it's a legit top-tier movie. It's also directed by James Cameron
Absolutely! It is probably the best sequel ever. Usually the sequel is not as good as it’s prequel, but aliens is phenomenal
@@judeless77 They're also very very different movies. While both have a sci-fi setting, Alien is a horror movie, and Aliens is an action movie. If you have a preference between those two genres, it will probably affect which of the two films you prefer. While I think Aliens is a good film, I also think the original film is vastly superior.
Terminator 2 was a kick ass sequel as well.
I love all three, personally. And even enjoy the fourth one because of the cast, if not some of the creative choices made in it. I hated Covenant and Prometheus was very flawed and weak, but at least it had some spark within it... Covenant just didn't bring anything new to the table.
How predictable. But true.
You may remember the "chest burster" from the end of Spaceballs. Spaceballs featured the same actor, hence his quote "Oh, no! Not again...."
RIP John Hurt
The diner scene in Spaceballs is so good. The singing and everyone's reactions.
@@DarthTach The great John Hurt!
Same actor in Spaceballs John hurt
Cheque please....
"Dated" must mean that the director doesn't assume the audience has a collective IQ of a turnip and can handle character development and slow, patient and atmospheric buildups. *shrugs*
She even believes that moonlanding conspiracy... Dont expect too much from her
'79 was right during that period when 'realistic' space movies could be made. The serious takes on it all were somewhat 'slow' because as we know - this was new and it was a pleasure to view. Obviously this many years later the honeymoon is over.
This is what happens when you have a generation growing up with Marvel trash.

@@RoodeMenon why are you asking? "that really old movie..." is part of Peter Parkers quote (age 15) OP isn't the one calling the movie really old.
Spoiler: We definitely went to the moon.
We went to the moon only to cover up for the fact that the moon is flat, painted on the sky dome. That's why we never see the other side of it. Also, there's no evidence of the moon ever existing before the 1800s. So who went up there and painted it on, and why? I'd tell you, but if I do, *they* will come for you too.
Hollywood spoiler, that is.
Not all of us.
Yes. Anybody who doubts we went to the moon is a gullible sheep.
that was before they released the classified files
"So old it's not considered a horror anymore..."
Wow, who sold you THAT bridge?
Someone who really wanted to stress her out.
Fun fact, Mary. During the "chestburster" scene, the actors weren't told exactly what would happen. All they knew was that the guy would be on the table freaking out. So when the "alien" burst out of his chest, they're reactions of shock, and horror were totally real. Lambert screaming "Oh, God!" was not acting, and she actually fainted after the cut.
I did not know that. But stuff like that seemed to be a common theme back in the day in order to get a "real" reaction from the cast. Friday the 13th did that a few times.
oh wow, that is intense.
The New "It" movie had a similar scene where some actors didn't quite know what would happen.
Ah the magic of childbirth... such a beautiful moment. And all Mary could do is recoil in horror. There was no, "Oh look at the cute baby!" or "Isn't that precious?". Some people are so racist.
@@Mr.Ekshin What does racism have to do with it?
Nothing,ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
Yeah, so now you definitely have to watch “Aliens”. It’s more action oriented then horror
Aliens definitely and Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) is more bad ass in Aliens. Then watch Sigourney Weaver go against that type in Galaxy Quest. Hopefully you know something about Star Trek to really understand. If not, still a good movie on its own. Oh, Allan Rickman is in Galaxy Quest.
Geez, ya think?
@@gigerdevoter5928 what it's the perfect sequel and expands ripley's story properly because she has even more to her.

“Alien came before Star Wars.”
The force is weak with this one...
How can she have seen Star Wars and not realized Space Balls opening spoofed that, not this
Yeah, I noticed that too. I find it interesting because reactors (inclidimf her) usually put the year of release in the title of their videos but somehow don't understand that 1977 came before 1979.
"allegedy" landed on the moon? Oh no, Mary. We did. Please.
However the conspiracy that the moon landing was faked is harder to believe than the truth.
No shot dude

7:20 - "Of course, Alien came before Star Wars"..... there's a drinking game to be had, here.
There was a story from a film reviewer about watching Alien with his wife. She decided to write her own review: Alien is a movie where no one listens to the smart lady. Then they all die... except the smart lady and her cat. 4 stars.
They all die for like, five movies.

Master yoda the wise thank you for your wisdom I have learned something new on this day may the force be with you 😉😎💯
@@pacdoforlove8263 welcome you are
Some effect in Alien are copied of Star Wars
The success of Star Wars kicked off a wave of sci-fi movies and TV programming: Alien (1979), Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1978), Star Trek: the Motion Picture (1979, though this one was in the works for many years), Flash Gordon (1980), Star Crash (1978), Buck Rogers (1978), Battlestar Galactica (1978), and "V" (1981). (I might be off a year or so on the release dates). Prior to Star Wars, sci-fi movies were considered by producers to only have a niche market.
One of the best Sci-fi Horror films ever made.
Honestly the only other film I'd rate slightly higher in that category is The Thing. Both masterpieces of tension and unsettling body horror.
She should watch the first two Terminators
It might be THE best
I'd go further. It is THE best sci-fi horror.
Agree. We know.
"Flamethrow it off his face" that is probably the best thing I've ever heard. 🤣
That “long ship” from spaceballs was parodying Star Wars.
2001 A Space Odyssey did it first.
Allegedly landed on the moon? You're killing me.
"Ten months is a long time to be out there."
Guys... nobody tell her!
:-)
😉
Not.. A word
Hinting at spoilers ain’t cool.
My lips are sealed.
Everybody got the long ship sequence from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
The Moon landing was in 1969, the very end of the 60's. Most of the Apollo missions were in the 70's.. To this day one of the biggest issues in producing good science fiction is in the cost of special effects. It's for this reason that we tend to get more cop buddy movies than space adventure. Battlestar Galactica non TV was one of the few success stories.
Star Wars (1977) came first. Both Alien (1979) and space balls (1987) borrowed the ship crawl at the opening from Star Wars. In the opening of most of the Star Wars films a large object is seen moving diagonally across the screen as the very first shot.
Also the long spaceship scenes in the first Star Trek movie were part of what Spaceballs was parodying.
There is also „2001 - A Space Odyssey“ which also had a very long Ship-flyby, and it predates each of these Movies.
@@kuribayashi84 The first such sequence I believe.
when was star trek?
@@Revytwohands-io6du The Movie or the T.V. show?
The first movie was 1979.
If you choose to watch the sequel, Aliens, know that it’s more of an action film, and less of a horror film.
But seriously, in 1979, this was top level horror. That dinner scene, the actors experienced that with the same lack of knowledge that the audience had. They were sprayed with the blood and some of their reactions were real, definitely not acting.
This was more sci-fi than horror, even though the tag line for the movie was "In space, nobody can hear you scream". There were much better horror movies around in the late 70's and early 80's. This was hardly a top tier horror flick.
Not only that but most of the Nostromo set was all connected with only one entrance/exit.
So it was designed to foster a sense of claustrophobia and to put the actors on edge.
Watch Aliens and stop, do not continue with the franchise.
I was pissing myself when she said "It isn't a horror movie." That got me GOOD 🤣🤣🤣🤣
As astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson says, “It’s easier to actually put men on the moon than to successfully fake it”
He is a class A tool
@@TheGunderian That statement is correct though
Yep! That is absolutely accurate!
If we landed on the moon how come we've never gone back in 50 years
Pepole, pepole. How you know the moon landings where real is the fact that the #1 enemy of the US the USSR would not be quiet if it was faked, they where monitoring every thing done on the moon, as well as listening to all of the radio traffic from the moon during missions. On top of all of that pepole from all over the planet where able to use personal short-wave radios to listen in on the astronauts.
Houston, Texas resident. Grew up around the Gemini & Apollo programs. We went.
I went to the Cape Canaveral facility's back in the 70s. the Apollo equipment and program facilities were still there, and they were starting up on the Space Shuttle program. So I can say that we definitely went. I've also met three Apollo astronauts over the years, one of which, Alan Bean, walked on the moon. I know we went there!
The moon landing comment kinda threw me for a loop. It coloured how I watched the video.
Don't you mean 'alleged?'. Heh. :) Hopefully she was playing it cautious and trying to avoid alienating potential viewers who buy into that crap - but these days who can tell?

@@bryanburton6087 It's still not a benevolent conversation. To normalize it is to legitimize it. And, man, there are enough conspiracy theories informing policy and public opinion as it is.
Same here.
Mary: "Though of course Alien came before Star Wars"
IMDB determined that was a lie lol.
Ridley Scott, he made one of the best Alien movies, and also one of the worst Alien movies... So if you watch Aliens, you can stop there, cause the peak there, and grow worse with each one.
If you watch Prometheus in a language you don't understand you see a mysterious and beautifully shot film. (Without the preposterous, inconsistent and painful characters and plot points.)
Y E S.
Aliens was just a scifi-actionmovie. It had tension, but it was already on the path of destroying the art ; the legend, which was created with Alien (1979). Aliens doesnt have the same ''strange'' atmosphere... it doesnt feel like ''i am at nowhere''... the distances in space wasnt as big in Aliens, as in Alien. And there wasnt that feeling of lonelyness,like in Alien... it just hasnt the same thing... James Cameron did Aliens, and he made a quiet typical scifi-action-movie, which set the road to the later Alien-movies (they all was much more into action, than into horror). Also Alien (1979) was the only movie where an artist (H. Giger) was involved significantly into the set, and the filming. Thats why Alien cant get old, while Alien 3 and 4 already feels ''old'' , and even Aliens feels like a 'typical 80s'-movie , while Alien 1979 doesnt feels like a ''typical 70s movie''.
I'd say he made the worst one, Covenant was a chore to watch for me, so dumb and boring.
Yep, Aliens was the peak, unfortunately I watched the rest thinking they were good...
Fun Fact: John Hurt (who plays Kane) was the only actor who knew ahead of time what would happen in the chest-burster scene. All the reactions of the other actors are completely genuine.
Also, four identical cats played the role of Jones.
But it is not true. People keep repeating this as a fact, but the cast knew exactly what was going to happen. It's one of those rumours that people keep repeating because it makes for a fun story. The truth is however, that it was in the script, everyone knew what was going to happen, and the scene took a long time to set up. The cast could see them preparing the scene, so it wasn't a surprise at all. The amount of blood however, may have been a surprise to both the cast, the director and the effects crew.
@@Imaculata Yes, you are correct. They all knew what was supposed to happen, But as far as they knew, that take was supposed to be a practice take. When the chest actually exploded, the cast (Other than John Hurt) were actually shocked in horror, that it was the actual take they used in the movie! Cameron wanted a real shocked reaction, so they told them this is a rehearsal. Setting up the chest-explosion at the time was a difficult chore, so he wanted one take, and he got it!
My takeaway from this comment:
There were four cute tabby good boys on the Nostromo, and I'm all for it.
Mary : "OMG... He's a droid ?"
Me : "Yes... And he's annoyed."
For people that know... and I'll see myself out...
I get it and damn you for reminding me of that episode.
That is literally my least favorite episode. Painful television.
Good evening ladies and germs
Yes, by all means, guy man, show yourself out.
Believe it or not as a small kid I was mostly scared of Ash
Parker had one of the most badassed movie deaths. He took on the alien in hand to hand combat in an attempt to save Lambert. And, yes, you should definitely react to James Cameron's Aliens soon. It's more of an action film rather than horror and features Ripley again. Fun fact about Aliens: Cameron shot the opening scene in Ridley Scott's style as like a little tribute nod to the genius with the long tracking shots and long camera angles, but the rest of Aliens was shot in Cameron's own style.
Preacher from "Deep blue sea": "Brothers never make it out of situations like this! Not ever!"
Whether you were joking or not, a decent telescope can easily let you see all the junk left behind on the moon after the moonlandings - from lander pieces to big mirrors put there so people on Earth could measure the exact distances. There's even a car or two left behind.
Not even the VLT array can get a resolution of better than 130 meters per pixel. No ground telescope can see any disturbance left by humans.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_evidence_for_Apollo_Moon_landings
Yes, but to understand the counter argument, you need to remember that some people's minds don't operate using things like facts, logic, reason, common sense, or historical precedent.
Want to know if we've been somewhere? Look for litter. :D
Nope, not possible with any current optical telescope, not even the Hubble (which doesn't suffer from the problem of atmospheric distortion) has enough resolution to detail stuff so tiny on the surface of the moon. In order to do that, the Hubble would need to have a lens 100 meters wide.
Also the laser ranging mirrors astronauts left on the moon are kind of a giveaway we did actually go to the moon.
"People are sensitive" lol weren't you the one who immediately started saying they were using 'microaggresions' in that movie?
Micro aggressions is such a stupid concept since it creates problems that don't exist. The world is truly screwed thanks to such ridiculous ideas.
Was just thinking when Mary said that, that's like the pot calling the kettle black
She's a child of the recent university indoctrination system where pseudo-feminism and identity-politics reign supreme - idiocy is to be anticipated but it may not be her own.
I would choose to give her reactions a chance on entertainment value alone and try not to judge her on her possible 'politics' which have nothing to do with watching movies for our entertainment. After all, that reaction to the chest-burster is golden - a memory of me watching this on release :lol:.
Getting mad at someone asking a question is sensitive, getting pissed off at racism is not sensitive.
agreed. exactly what I thought.
My favourite thing about this is you freaking out over the chestburster even though you just saw the exact same thing happen to the exact same person in Spaceballs! That's John Hurt in both scenes, hence "oh no, not again."
Fun fact: the cat orchestrated everything so it could be alone with Ripley.
Why do I love this idea?
"Is it bigger? It keeps growing, holy s**t it's huge" - Mary 2021 (and yes, that is what she said)

L O L !
Genius.
Very entertaining! Do more movies please.
As for the Moon landing, the only people who question it are people too young to have been conscious during the Mercury, Gemini, and finally Apollo programs. For anyone who lived through it, there were thousands of separate events over many years leading step by step up to it, and the idea that it was faked is absurd.
For a conspiracy to work, the fewer the people that know the better. For Apollo, they've have to pay off and "take care of" thousands of people. Plus, Russia (the Soviet Union at the time) was watching everything VERY closely. If there was any chance America was faking it, they would have blown the whistle immediately to make America look bad. For the amount of money it would have taken to fake it, pay people off, and keep it a secret for over FIFTY years... it would have simply been cheaper to build a rocket, and send people to the moon. Which is what we did. :o)
@BrandonFlorida Regarding the Moon landing, agreed. Setting aside for a moment the 400,000+ Americans who worked on Apollo, and whether or not they could all be in on the conspiracy (along with all their family members), those of us who were alive to see the Apollo missions, including the first of several Moon landings, fully appreciate that at the time there was a space race going on with the Soviet Union. If the Moon landings had been faked, the Soviets would have told the world. They were watching.

Well done for getting through Alien, without too much trauma!
You should definitely watch Aliens, it's the rare case of a sequel that fully lives up to the original. It's also less of a straight horror, and more action-oriented.
Oh, yeah, Jones is absolutely the MVP in the film. He meets the big chap on 2 occasions and survives without a scratch, while the humans get horribly slaughtered....
Another of my favourite quotes:
"There's a horror movie called ALIEN? That's really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you."
- Doctor Who
This movie is a prime example on why ridley Scott is a genius and the best at what he does. The fact that he didn't tell everyone what would happen except for the siezing, their real reactions made it better.
Yes Mary Cherry, the moon landings in '69-'72 were real. Also, if you're ok with dated horror movies then you ought to try The Exorcist from '73.
The Exorcist? Oh oh.
@@scottjo63 "Oh, Yeah."
Mary Cherry would not survive The Exorcist. The Exorcist is the angry Godzilla of horror films even to this day.
@@dunbarf2413 Yeah, I agree. She kept saying how the '70's movies were 'dated' and 'not scary.' I think she learned her lesson about that belief.
She also seems to be mixing up Slasher movies with Horror movies. All the best (in my opinion) horror movies aren't really that gory and bloody at all. There are, of course, some exceptions. ie: George Romero, but I digress. I enjoy a good horror movie. Slasher movies bore me.
@@bryanburton6087 There are still some good "early" horror films from the era before slasher movies as well; The Pit and The Pendulum, Witchfinder General, House on Haunted Hill and The Wicker Man all still have a powerfully tense atmosphere and the content has aged well even if some of the sets haven't. But yeah, the problem with popularising something is that most people will then associate that thing with you, even if you're only one aspect or derivative of it: slasher movies are one form of many under the umbrella of "horror", but because it's the one that became the most popular, it's what most people think of when they think of horror.

Couple things, early on in the reaction; 1, yes, we landed on the Moon. In 1969 it would literally be easier to physically go to the moon than to fake it on a movie set. You could fake things like the shadows today with digital effects, but not in the 60s.
2, the first Star Wars was in 1977, this movie was 1979, 2 years later.
If that were true, everyone would be going to the moon.
@@KittyBoom360 And where exactly is the rocket that can bring a bus load of passengers to and from the moon? Oh right, NASA doesn’t have the entire country founding it’s projects anymore, sorry to burst your bubble
We literally had the technology to get men to Mars in the 1970s. Just not the will. Those Saturn V's were seriously overbuilt.
@@KittyBoom360 lol
I love it when people react viscerally to horror films
"Allegedly"? Please don't feed the trolls.
She is the troll queen!
@@derrickmarais You've gotta admit, that was some pretty good trolling -- especially given everything that's going on in the space sector, right now.
Alien (1979) came out two years after Star Wars (1977) - Sci-Fi and 'space films' became very popular after the success of Star Wars for some reason...
They were already getting popular with 2001 A space Odyssey. It’s the movie that recreated the public’s interest in Sci-Fi, in fact there wouldn’t be a Star Wars without it as Licas explained his two main inspirations were 2001 and The hidden Fortress by Kurosawa.
didnt the first Star Trek film come first? then Star Wars?
@@adrianburchell8075 Nah the first Stark Trek was 79 and first star wars 77 but there already was an animated Star Trek series which aired in the early 70s.
@@adrianburchell8075 the very first star trek series did come before star wars but no movies. 2001 is my favorite movie of all time but i would still argue that the new interest sci fi had much more to do with star wars. Its hard to even comprehend the impact star wars had on everything when it was released
"Holy shit it's huge" - That's what she said, "OMG it keeps growing" - Yes, that's what she said
During the test screenings for the film they had people running out of the theater vomiting and the producers knew they had a winner.
If scary games freak you out, don’t play “Alien: Isolation.” Too many jump scares lol.
Man just the few YT videos of the game will freak you the hell out.
In case anyone is curious, the white stuff inside robots in this series is the circulatory fluid in the form of white liquid latex used to lubricate their interior systems.
Alien and Aliens (Alien 2, basically) are masterpieces. I would suggest watching those two and then stopping there. The franchise got progressively worse after that when different writers and directors took over and had no idea what they were doing.
Alien 3 isn't actually.....that....bad. You could maybe watch it if you wanted to. But it ruins the story. I'd suggest just leaving it at 2.
RIP John Hurt, Ian Holm, Harry Dean Stanton & Yaphet Kotto. Kotto passed away only a few days ago.
And now you've also seen the Scene "Spaceballs" made fun of near the end. You know, the "Oh no! Not again!"-one. John Hurt even returned for a cameo for that. :D
Also RiP Bolaji Badejo (the Alien) and Helen Horton (Mother)
The moon landing occurred. I saw televised, live. And I have been to the space museum in Florida. Yea, I'm that old.
Mary: I'm not gonna have a nightmare...
Everyone: Oh my sweet summer child...
You should do more horror reactions. You're hilarious when you're scared!
Now you know which "old" movie Peter Parker referenced in Infinity War, when he blew that guy out of the space shop. And now you have one of the best sequels and Action movies ever: Aliens.
"Hey you got something one your face, let me get the flamethrower" 😂😂
"It's no longer considered a horror anymore"
a few moments later: 13:35
End of Spaceballs, when sitting at the diner, the alien "baby" comes dancing across the counter singing "Hello my baby, hello my darlin'..."
You seem to be underestimating older movies for some reason.
Allegedly????!!!!!!
You will absolutely LOVE the second one. It isn't as much of a scary movie as this one and Ripley's a serious badass in it.
I LOVE your reactions!!! I can just imagine if you see a horror movie in a theater. Thanks for the smiles!
I can't believe you already forgot the chestburster scene from Spaceballs. XD
"Oh no! Not again!"
"Check, please!"
"Get this guy some Pepto Bismol!"
Actually, by 1979 when, "Alien" was released, the general public had grown pretty bored with the real space program. Science fiction, on the other hand, was gaining more and more mainstream popularity.
This was the first movie to use the "it's dead, it's not dead" trick. So no one was expecting it in 1979.
"If you believe the moon landing" - Teacher from Interstellar has entered chat.
Not only is Ash an alien, he's a pervert! Lol
That plot twist with Ash was the best! Ian Holm had too much dairy.
Onto Aliens (1986)
When I was a little kid (around 7) I thought that the TV show Ripley's Believe it or Not (The Jack Palance version) was named after Ellen Ripley; I mean, she got chased by a 7ft tall murder Xeno, which sounds dubious at first. It made total sense that people might not believer her.
That Rick poster on the right compliments the video perfectly. Especially hilarious during the chestburster scene! He looks like he is reacting to it as well while she jumps and screams watching it.
I hope you watch the sequel as well, Aliens. If you do, PLEASE watch the extended cut. Not sure if it's called the Special Edition or Director's Cut(the runtime is 2h37m instead of 2h17m), but it includes some scenes that definitely make the story flow better.
This film along with The Thing (watch it one day, maybe after you've had a break from horror though, lol) are in my opinion the greatest sci-fi thrillers ever made.
Edit: You mentioned having high standards for Ridley Scott. If you haven't seen Blade Runner, visually it is one of the most incredible works of science fiction ever made. It's long, and some say too slow paced, but well worth your time.
Gore seems to be an issue so she should probably build up to The Thing...
@@GriffinPilgrim yeah, good call. Lol
i think she would like The Thing it has flame throwers
Apparently the innards of the Facehugger were made of various shellfish like oysters and scallops. The practical effects of this movie definitely stand the test of time.
So glad I’m subscribed you’ve started becoming one of my fav reactors and this series is great I hope you finish the whole series
For some reason the alien movies always calm me down lol half the time I fall asleep when I put these on
