itsallovernowI've been meaning to say this for weeks, because I'm just no less excited than I was when it came up on the movie previews.
The are releasing the director's cut of Alien in the theaters in October. And there should be dancing on the desktops as I write this ( except of course most everyone probably already knew this). I love this movie.
It absolutely scared the life out of me the first time I saw it as a kid in a crappy motel room in New Mexico in the middle of a snowstorm. My parent's were fighting- cause that's what you do on vacation, fight with family members) and weren't paying attention to what I was watching, and I was always careful and clever as a child to manage to always do what I wanted to do without getting caught and I didn't sleep for most of that vacation, even though they eventually figured out what I was watching. They never censored my reading or viewing material (we only had cable sporadically so it wasn't like I could have gotten in too much trouble). So we watched the rest together. I can still hear that hiss stretch of sound when it opens it's mouth and the tinny clink of teeth. And it still scares me, and I still love it and have never seen it in the theater.
