Whorror Favorite: Alien and Aliens

Alien (1979) and Aliens (1986)
Wow, what more do I have to say? Well, ok... These 2 movies came way before their time—space movies remained a subgenre, not mainstream fare, before the first movie. In fact, Alien only got the greenlight because of the success of Star Wars. Sophistcated and beautiful, with the help of H. R. Giger and old school f/x (pre computer) these movies remain examples of timeless horror and exceptional movie making.

If you haven't seen either since the time of their release, you must watch them again.

Just got the Alien Quadriolgy, loving every minute of it.
