Grab some alcohol, get out of those clothes and enter the bubble bath with some friends as we discuss Feet, Dune, Cowboys, Annoying Women oh, and at some point, the seminal 1979 Science Fiction-Horror masterpiece, Ridley Scott's Alien.
Releasing in 1979, shocking and inspiring audiences, and spawning a multi-million dollar franchise that would refuse to die, Alien was a breakthrough science fiction film made on the fringe of a cultural phenomenon, Star Wars. Where sci-fi had been a trope-filled, low budget, stain on the film market, Alien proved that this genre could be done with gravity, excellent writing, a stellar cast and do what Jaws did for the ocean for space, and the unknown.
So... does it still hold up? With a range in age differences we hope we can provide some unique perspectives on our first viewing experiences and how it impacted us.
Whilst gearing up for this recording session we learned of the unfortunate news of Yaphet Koto's passing and attempted to shed more light on his career and the recently published interviews with him in regards to Alien and his role in the film. We urge you to go and seek out these articles and perhaps watch some of his other notable roles. RIP
