That's "Alien".....

For those who haven't seen it yet. Watch it blind. You'll love it. It is definitely one of the scariest movies out there, especially considering it's age and the practical effects they used.

I didn't think it was the most terrifying movie ever but just the right amount of terror lol. Personally my favorite horror movie of all time.

Yes there will be.

Man I remember reading that most audiences went to this movie thinking it would be like the friendly alien movie of its time… E.T. Dear god how some people must have felt if they had that expectation 😂
