A Tour Of The Motion Picture Alien
By taking a look at this particular piece, I can venture a guess that you are looking to learn a little more about the film “Alien” in many different capacities. Through the course of the upcoming paragraphs, you will be introduced to the film through a plot synopsis, a breakdown of the actors and actresses that made the film possible, and why this movie revolutionized sci-fi horror films.
The first thing that you should likely understand is that this film was by no means the first or even close to the first movie to feature extraterrestrial beings. The idea of humans interacting with these beings and creatures was not something out of the realm of possibility for movie goers. However, you might care to know that there were very distinct differences between the beings of the preceding films and the beings created by the minds behind this franchise.
One of the first and most noteworthy differences between the predecessors and the new revamped ones, would be that these creatures were not just slow moving awkward beings. Rather, they were highly intelligent, terrifying to look at, and even deadlier to be around than anything that might have hit the screen before it.
They were creatures that fed on fear as much as they fed on the lives of humans. They walked on all fours and they stalked and hunted their prey, which in this case was a group of unknowing space miners. They had several sets of teeth, and they salivated a substance that could eat through metal floors with ease. While you don’t learn it in the original release, but in the sequels, most of them report to a much larger and much more terrifying queen.
The film centers on a crew that is sent off to collect mineral and tow it back to Earth. They receive a distress signal that brings them out of hypersleep and encourages them to check out a nearby planet. While they are on the planet, they soon learn that they are not alone when Dallas and Kane encounter a large supply of feathery eggs. One breaks open and attaches to Kane’s face, which is impossible to get off.
But unbeknown to them at first, the crew later learns that they were meant to land on the planet and retrieve one of these creatures, whether they themselves actually made it back to Earth alive or not. They try many different ways to escape, and many of the crew is killed in the chaos. Ripley manages to escape on a shuttle after hitting the self destruct button on the ship, but not without an alien clinging to the outside portion of her craft trying to get in. When the creature attempts to enter through the thruster vents, she fires them on which kills the creature and she is able to make the trip back to Earth.
This film would likely not have been as good without the performances that brought the film to life. The most noteworthy of these being from Sigourney Weaver (Ripley) and the supporting roles of Tom Skerritt (Dallas) and John Hurt (Kane).
There is a good bit to know about the movie “Alien”, but this should give you a proper introduction to the film. While this movie is quite a classic, you might want to check it out as well as the several sequels to the film that followed after (most of which feature Sigourney Weaver in returning roles as Ripley).
