'A' is for Alien
Got a few different flavors of outer space invaders here this month, mainly running through the Ridley Scott-inspired franchise (but not those ones with Predators too, they are suspect). And definitely some weird ones for the end of the month. -Enjoy!
Part 4: 4/25/2025
The Oddities
Willy's Wonderland
Director: Kevin Lewis
"But it does have a weird energy to it, solely because of Nicolas Fuckin Cage. And for that, it is worth watching. Kinda."
The Lighthouse
Director: Robert Eggers
"The rest is a descent into a weird mythological madness that seems like both Poseidon and Cthulhu are just taking turns pissin on the rookie, just for fun."
Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Directors: George Miller & George Ogilvie
"Shit gets taken care of in the Dome. Then, there’s the second half of the movie."
Part 3: 4/18/2025
Alien Covenant
Director: Ridley Scott
"Even if this story takes place like 33 years before the first Alien, you wouldn’t think every crew is this fucking stupid."
Annihilation
Director: Alex Garland
"[Natalie Portman] looks like, well, an emaciated sock. Eat a steak, girl! It will make you stronger!"
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai in the 8th Dimension!
Director: W.D. Richter
"Badass Buckaroo Banzai is a neurosurgeon, MultiDimensional traveler AND band leader. Is there anything he can’t do?"
Part 2: 4/11/2025
Alien3
Director: David Fincher
"What the fuck happened here?"
Alien: Resurrection
Director: Jean-Pierre Jeunet
"But the real question is, Is there a chest-bursting sequence that rivals all other chest-bursting sequences? Yeah! There kinda is!"
Alien: Prometheus
Director: Ridley Scott
"There’s a lot of fuckeries going on here. Interesting fuckeries. Horrific and stupid fuckeries."
Part 1: 4/4/2025
Arrival
Director: Denis Villeneuve
"I was surprised to see it wasn’t written by a chick. Because this? Kinda chick sci-fi."
Alien
Director: Ridley Scott
"Don’t bring cats to space. It is our downfall. Even the Egyptians knew this, pretty sure that’s what all those hieroglyphics with them meant, as a warning."
Aliens
Director: James Cameron
"Big budget, big action, big thrills. It doesn’t disappoint, even today."
