"Life ain't dangerous if stupid people don't surround you." These NEED to be written down somewhere. I love it!
True
I was just thinking the same thing.
This woman's reactions are top tier. This is the friend I want to watch movies with. Intelligent and hilarious commentary. "It zippidied across the table like a roach." 😂
Aw! 🥰 Thank you
@@kahlareactsI second that! You are hilarious!
Can't disagree.
AGREE! ♡
Absolutely!
"This is a level of NOPE I've never experienced before." I LOVE THAT!
I was laughing when she said that! Also, "I don't need to be amazed" LOL. Looking forward to Aliens which is great (but no need to see parts 3 or 4 - so bad).
I was trying to remember this line! I love it and I laughed out loud when she said it. 😂
"They should have listened to her." That line should have been on the cover!
First jumpscare of the film and this woman is so busy fuming at Cain's stupidity she not even scared by it. Marvelous! 😂
At that point, nothing would’ve surprised me. 😂
"Curiosity killed the cat. But satisfaction brought him back." The full quote. But your instincts? Yeah, I'd follow those! lol!
You have no idea just how amazing this film was in 1979! There had been nothing like this seen on film before. Ridley Scott scared the crap out of the world! lol. Remember...this film is 45 - years - Old!! NO CGI!!
Practical effects will always be superior. Just finding ways to create models, creatures, making a soundstage look like you are outside (the dispersal when the Marines get out of the tank and its raining…a set with a grey painted background, and a guy with a sprinkler above them. Genius) So creative with what they had to work with, and how much $$ they had to work with!
@@ChrisS-no3ft I agree and not only will these effects always be superior, imo it takes more ingenuity, creativity and overall ability (i.e. technical expertise in cameras/lenses, mechanical engineering, etc.) to pull them off well.
Its amazing to me a movie this old has aged so well. Still one of my favorite movies, even though it was released a decade before I was even born.
Practical EFX make badly done "modern day" CGI/DFX look cheap and unconvincing, by comparison.
Yes... 😉 ...he (Ian Holmes) WAS Bilbo Baggins in the film version of the Tolkien stories.
And Young Lady... ☺ ....your reactions are EXACTLY what we all felt when seeing this film in the theaters back in the day.😆
Still one of the BEST Sci-Fi/Horror films of all time.👊🏾
I've probably seen dozens of reactions to this movie alone. She's got to be the first one to catch that.
Who in their right mind goes back for a cat when there is an eight-foot acid-spitting alien after them. Still, this is the best Truckers In Space film ever.
And Aliens is one of those rare movies where maybe the sequel is not perse better but at least it is equally good.
As an Aliens fan - it's better lol
Both arguments are legit. Both films are phenomenal. Cant spoil here. She’s watching it next. I LOVE Aliens. But when I go back and watch Alien again, I’m like “my gosh this film is amazing”. They are so different in tone and style, its hard to compare them. Star Trek The Motion Picture was an epic slow-moving film with a mystery plot, while Star Trek 2 is an emotional rollercoaster with a different look and tone. You can’t compare them. With this franchise, it really is personal preference I think, but everyone’s opinion is their own, and I can’t wait to see Kahla’s reaction to Aliens to get her take!
yes... well put.
I agree! I like Aliens so much more, Alien is good!
I think they are equally good, just vastly different generas.
Both are scifi but Alien is like sci-fi horror and Aliens is sci-fi action. Both are paragons in their generas.
yes Ash was Bilbo in LOTR, he was also in the 5th Element and Henry V
Not “Zipped across the table like a roach.” I’m dying over here! Thank God I work from home!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Everyone has the same reaction to Kanes' scientific curiosity. Without scientific knowledge we would still be in caves. No one ever called Madame Curie stupid or ridiculous. Her brilliant work led o many medical breakthroughs. Radiation exposure killed her, but led to many life-saving advances. Probably one of the most brilliant individuals in history.
Yeah that's fair, but they do it at the detriment of characters on the ship. Surely you can still try to capture it without showing complete lack of regard of everyone else on board.
@spiritconsumer I'm only defending Kane's actions. Ashes' decision to allow the alien on board was a stupid decision and definitely goes against any sort of scientific protocol. It's the exploratory aspect I'm speaking of.
This is my favourite film of all time, and watching someone watch it for the first time and reacting to it in the way that you did is delightful.
Iconic movie with one of the og final girls
"It's got a great defense mechanism... you don't dare kill it..."
Classic sci-fi horror. The tension is so thick, you will need a sharp steak knife in order to cut it.
The voice of "Mother" is so iconic, in my honest opinion. There's something unnerving about a cold feminine voice counting down to your death. It wasn't until GLaDOS that we rediscovered that a computerized female voice can be absolutely creepy.
Fun Fact: In H.R. Giger's original illustrations that inspired the look of the Alien, the creature had eyes. For the movie, Giger insisted that the creature have no eyes, thus giving the bleak appearance of a cold and emotionless beast that hunts by smell.
Real Guts Fact: The dead facehugger that Ash (Ian Holm) autopsies was made using fresh shellfish, four oysters, and a sheep kidney to re-create the internal organs. Filming had to be done quickly because the organic material would go bad very fast under the studio lights.
Bloody Solution Fact: It was conceptual artist Ron Cobb who came up with the idea that the Alien should bleed acid. This came about when Dan O'Bannon ran into a wall with the screenplay on how to handle the last half of the movie. He needed a good reason for why the crew members don't just shoot the thing and kill it but still not make it an indestructible monster that can't be killed. The acid blood was the idea that solved this problem.
DAMN! I just said that the face-hugger looked like raw oyster, which I love btw!
Kahla.... Thank you for your reaction!!! I laughed so much and OUT LOUD during this!!! =X-D Great reaction!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
I saw "Alien" on opening day - without any idea of what it was about other than it was a Sci Fi movie of some sort. I can't even describe the shockwave that went through the theater when the big scene 55 minutes into the film occurred. I'm so thankful I saw the movie on opening day which was a Friday, because by Sunday it seemed like EVERYBODY knew what was coming because nobody could keep their mouths shut. Hehe. As for "Aliens", it is one of the best sequels to any movie period. And the reason it works so well is because the first movie was treated like a horror movie. The sequel is treated like an action movie. And that is where Hollywood should have learned its lesson - because it was never that good again. Hey, there is only so much you could do with that creature so it was beating a dead horse alright. So I say just watch the first two and just stop. Great reaction btw.
That plot didn’t just thicken, it twisted!!” - You are a GLORIOUS reactor and I will follow you wherever you go!!
She’s gorgeous to boot!
He didnt have to live this way... lol .. subbed
Her comments cracked me up twice in the first 10 minutes
I love watching your reactions, always got me laughing 😂❤
OMG... you walked into this not even knowing if the alien is friendly or dangerous? That's wild. I wish I could have ever seen it walking in that cold.
“This is worse than that. THIS IS WORSE THAN THAT!”
My father and I saw this film when it was released in the theater. Even he was blown away at the chest burster scene.
Trivia, none of the actors (except John Hurt) knew what was going to happen. Angela Cartwright nearly fainted. 😊
The robot Ash was mind blowing at the time. If you want to see what we thought a Robot looked like before Alien, check out "Forbidden Planet"
Or
If you want another "wait what" then check out "The Matrix" 😉
the ick from deep within...brilliant
I loved your comments and reactions. Great job!
Great reaction, looking forward to Aliens
"This is why you can't go on trips w/everybody." Never were truer words spoken. Glad I Subscribed Kahla. You're SO much fun. I've enjoyed your reactions & voted for Alien. Alien is a true classic.
Girl, you had the smartest and best reaction I've ever seen to this movie.
Curiosity killed the cat, But satisfaction brought him back. This movie was such an incredible experience in the theaters when it came out. I had never seen anything like it. No one had.
Oooh. I was waiting for this one. I'm loving your reactions, girl, and I know this & Aliens will be epic commentaries 😁...
I haven't even finished watching this reaction, and yup, you have easily become one of my favorite reactors. No matter what video I click on, I'm just non-stop laughing. Oh, and when you watch "Aliens", make sure it's the Director's Cut. It adds a whole new, beautiful layer to the story that's just 🤌🏾...
Oh, and I'm sure others may have already said it, but I definitely need a Terminator & Terminator 2 reaction from you 😂👍🏾...
"Mother" is just the ship's AI, btw. It's a software imitation of intelligence. This wasn't the first time such a thing appeared in film - see 2001: A Space Odyssey - but was still decades ahead of its time.
Good one. Kahla! 🙂
I compare Alien to being in a funhouse. Plenty of chills and suspense. Aliens is more like a rollercoaster ride.
"...He about to stick his head in. I was kidding. he's really about to do this?!". Usually i put reacts on in the background while I work but this is too funny 😅
That actor did play Bilbo, good catch! Although, that was 20 years later, so he looks maybe slightly older in LotR haha.... RIP Ian Holm.
A level of nope got me. Subscribed.😂
Mother and Ash were both programmed by the Company.
"No... when you said look at this hole, that's when you slipped" Lmao
One of my all time favorite films btw!
'Don't touch stuff!" 😂 I am loving the energy of like...treating them like students failing a lab test. Those are the words they needed but no one listened to Ripley either so...
Love a good _Alien_ reaction video, and this is a damn good one. I fist saw this on Feb. 7, 1981 on Showtime. I was ten. Three of my friends spent the night, and my folks watched it with us in our living room at Loring AFB, Maine. Everyone in the room was terrified, and everyone exhaled and said "DAMN" when it was over. I've been hooked on this movie and the Alien/Weyland-Yutani universe ever since.
"You can check til you're blue in the face" 😅 Just one of many comments signed "Kahla" that made me chuckle 😆Looking forward to your reaction to Aliens, not only one of the best sequels ever made, it's one of the best movies ever made, period.
I haven't laughed this hard in a while. Great reaction!!🤣🤣🤣
O-M-Goodness .. Yes, this film IS stress stress-causing.. But wait until you see the sequel ... 'ALIENS'
When you watch Aliens, ensure you watch the Special Edition.
Naw. The theatrical release is the better cut.
Yes he did play Bilbo in Lord of the Rings.
I vote for John Carpenter's The Thing! lol
Rewatching this, and I absolutely love how engaged and how much in it you are with this movie. One of my favorite reactions to Alien 🙂
Great reaction Kahla, some of your sayings and on-liners are funny as hell, I can tell you're a fun person to hang with. You had the robot-scientist Ash pegged from the start, at least you knew something was off "why is he so calm?" 😅
If the characters did half of what you suggested they should do, there wouldn't be any movie. Yes, Ash later became Bilbo of the Shire and many other characters in other movies. So did John Hurt, who was the first one to die.
You did the literally impossible - you made me laugh at fucking Alien. 👏👏👏😆
"Alien": A youngster is boarding the "Nostromo." What will she make of this "old, long, slow-moving, character-centered, no-DFX" movie? I saw "Alien" in the same ex-Cinerama theater where I'd seen "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) and "Star Wars" (1977). The newspaper and TV ads said only: "In space no one can hear you scream." What kind of movie was this? This was a ground-breaking movie, SF/Horror with a commanding female protagonist, newcomer Sigourney Weaver as Third Officer Ripley. At certain points of this movie, I wondered if any of the crew would survive this "space ship with a dangerous monster loose" movie!;) 8:51 This conversation has become iconic "due to recent events." 9:30 The Face Hugger, grossing out audiences for decades. 10:33 Acid Blood solved a script problem. 16:32 The Xenomorph, scaring audiences for over 40 years.
It's always interesting watching reactions to this movie from before Covid, when folks were mostly on the side of "let them in; Kane needs medical attention" to reactions post-Covid when folks are almost unanimously on the side of "maintain the quarantine; leave 'em outside."
Your gut instinct was spot on right from the get-go! But your dialogue....I have never laughed so hard at a horror film as I have at this one! Thank you!
I want to watch a movie with you!!! Your reactions are hitting it! Aliens is next... LOL
Alien is such a great film, your reaction and commentary was fantastic! Looking forward to the next ones!
For my recommendations
“The Goonies” (1985)
“Explorers” (1985)
“Rocky” (1976)*
“Die Hard” (1989)**
“The Thing” (1982)
“Primer” (2004)
“Good Burger” (1997)
“Gattaca” (1997)
“Little Miss Sunshine” (2006)
Anything By Mel Brooks
Really Mel Brooks is comedy gold.
*I also recommend all the Rocky films
** Definitely a December watch.
Smart reactions, I like that - subbed! :)
This woman is smart and funny
Great reaction! Lovely host! Looking forward to more!
i see her sitting next to him while he got attacked by the facehugger telling him, unimpressed in face of the event: you dont have to live like this.
acid can be neutralized by something basic. something like soda
That was fun, Kahla! It's nice to meet you! Alien is one of my favorite films and I saw it in the theater when it first came out. It shook me up a lot (I was 15)! That got to me, for sure! But you will really love the sequel! It's a James Cameron film!
If haven't seen it, i recommend 'The Thing' 1982.
Great reaction.
Human curiosity is powerful and is what separates us from the rest of the species on the planet.
Despite the dangers of investigating electricity people like Nicola Tesla and Michael Faraday continued to experiment with the nature of electricity to find out how to control and use it.
If it weren't for the explorers taking risks the country you live in would not have been discovered and the equipment you are using to make this reaction would never exist.
I'm English and know that we haven't always got things right, but we learn from our mistakes and move forward.
This is why we investigate, and those who just settle for status quo are still drinking filthy water.
It's our higher intelligence level that separates us not curiosity, cats are very curious as are many other animals, but they aren't going to be making flint axes anytime soon
@@4Kandlez this is true, but I think you understand the point I was trying to make.
Best horror film Music ever
(Comedy) Movies to watch: The Ringer, Date Night , Jo Koy Don't Make Him Angry Netflix , Fired up , Benchwarmers , Cellular , Fluffy's Magic Mike Story , Stadium Fluffy Netflix , and Hot Fuzz , Transporter 1-2-3, Strays
Now, you have to see Aliens. Its bar none one of the greatest sequels to any movie. James Cameron makes Sigourney Weavers Ellen Ripley one of the greatest, most iconic heroines in film history.
@AClockworkBanana78 Cameron's artistic mindset is there in EVERY shot, no matter how short those cuts might be and apparently it still flies over everyones head
The Ick From Deep Within. That needs to be the title of a book.
I heard Louis Gossett Jr. died today, and I had an idea for a movie that would be fun to see you react to that would honor his passing. It's the 1985 science fiction drama movie Enemy Mine, if that's OKay? It's about a human and an alien whose races are at war and crash land on a hostile planet. They then have to put aside their hatred and prejudice for each other in order to survive until they're rescued. It's a really touching story and a great science fiction movie.
Aliens is a great sequel. I can't wait for your reaction to that! I would also recommend Star Trek 2: The Wrath Of Khan--it is an excellent movie. And as a lifelong sci Fi fan (especially a Star Trek and Star Wars fan), I'd have to say Trek 2 is arguably one of the best in that franchise because it's good as a standalone film, plus it's not connected to the previous film in the series and there is enough dialogue which explains what happened previously so anyone who is watching won't be lost. More importantly, it's a good, fun movie with lots of twists and surprises till the end.
This is one of my favorite movies, so I've seen it many times. I was more worried about you, my dear! I hope you still enjoyed it!
I would say: this is my all time favorite movie , and believe me: i saw a lot of movies. For me its pure art. Ironicly this lies into my family.. my uncle saw Alien when it came out in the movie theaters. I t was in hungary, where the title was different - they called it : ''The 8th passenger is: death'' because the crew was 7 members. My uncle also loved that movie that much - that because of the title, he went to the movie theaters 8 times to saw this movie. He never did such a thing with another movie - not before - not after. In my opinion the sequels are by ar not as good, as the first one. But in terms of modern action, the sequels are maybe even better. But in terms of movie art, this one is much better.
Always listen to your inner ick.
Love your commentary and asides. You are funny and smart. Going to have to check out some more of your reactions.
Great reaction! Highly recommend Aliens. You can skip 3 and 4.
How about an Alien film based on actual true accounts( Travis Walton story) as opposed to pure fiction
" Fire in The Sky" 93 🔥
Starring Robert Patrick (T-1000 Terminator 2). The most believable film on the topic. Essential reaction
"Check, please!"
It was his order to get the thing. right before they left, the other officer got replaced by Ash. So, whoever gave the orders knew they were sending them all to their deaths and to see what they could learn.
You are a great reactor! And I watch a lot of reactors. Several times your comments made me literally laugh out loud! This was a great movie but I would love you to react to the sequel, Aliens. It's my favorite movie of all time. If you do react to it though, please react to the director's cut. There's a whole storyline that's left out of the original theatrical release that is pretty important to understand motivations of characters etc.
Your reactions are just Funny as heck, you is the best from the UK England?
All classic 👌 multiple sequels look out new Alien 👽 coming soon.
That was a fun reaction. Now I´am curious what you´ll think about the sequel Aliens :)
Love your voice. Keep going!
Thank you! Will do!
I just discovered your channel and look forward to more. I really wish you had watched the director's cut, much more intense AND you would have found out what the alien did with their bodies! BE SURE TO WATCH THE DIRECTOR'S CUT OF ALIENS! The studio made James Cameron cut around 45 minuets of film because they wanted 5 shows a day instead of 4. More shows means more ticket sales faster but if they had left it alone it would have made more because it was so damn good more people would have seen it multiple times.
This is how you write a strong female character
"common sense should have the final word", cue Ripley...
Yes, that's Bilbo from Lord of the Rings.
I can't wait for you to see ALIENS
10min in and i want you on my zombie survival team. You speak truth.
Wld love to see you react to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" & "The Fly."
New here. Love you're reations! Gotta check out sequel.
Welcome!
Kane should have ordered the soup instead. If you know you know
Ms. Fine Lady... wait till you see "Aliens".
I'm getting strong HBCU and Greek sorority vibes from you. Love the sound of your voice.
Thank you! I did go to a HBCU for undergrad, but I’ve never been a part of Greek life.
Kahla, "It zipped across the table like a roach."😆🤣😂 That's why an all-black cast in this movie could never be, because the movie be over as soon as we see the alien in its cocoon, much less the Xenomorph stuck to the man's face, shoot them both out into deep space 9 and let's go home crew, to Mickey D's, & a 5th of Titos vodka, cause we need a normal reality check.
Recommend Aliend, then Predator, then Alien vs Predator.
But if you Luke action but not scary action, let me recommend District B13, an action film so He Man, they didn't bother hiring actors. They just had thr stuntmen do the lines.
I just subscribed
First of all Kahla, you’re doing an amazing job. I would like you to react to the original Star Trek films (not the JJ Abrams films). If thats of interest, let me know. I followed your Star Wars journey….awesome! If you (for a change in style) so I’d love you to react to the Star Trek films. Let me know! Anyone else ok with that suggestion? (Cant help it. Total geek here)
Which Star Trek movies would you suggest?
@@kahlareacts Thanks for responding! There are 6 original films. While that seems a little much for a newcomer, what many people do is watch Star Trek 2, 3, and 4, because they are basically a trilogy with a storyline arc. Kinda like Star Wars, Empire and Jedi. The first film (Star Trek the motion picture) is a slow-moving hard science plot. I say start with 2, 3, and 4. If you like them, watch the others. Just like Aliens, Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan is one of the best sci-fi sequels of all time. Before you watch Star Trek 2, some people watch the original Trek episode “Space Seed”. It ties in directly with the film, and will make more sense, but not necessary. Sorry to ramble. I’d love to see you watch those (Trek is very popular right now, so it may mean more clicks and subs 😉)
Who put him in charge? He's the captain.
See Aliens !!!
