Please note this is a region 2 DVD & will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play By transplanting the classic haunted house scenario into space Ridley Scott together with screenwriters Dan O& Bannon & Ronald Shusett produced a work of genuinely original cinematic sci-fi with Alien that despite the passage of years & countless inferior imitations remains shockingly fresh even after repeated viewing Scott&s legendary obsession with detail ensures that the setting is thoroughly conceived while the Gothic production design & Jerry Goldsmith&s wonderfully unsettling score produce a sense of disquiet from the outset everything about the spaceship Nostromo--from Tupperware to toolboxes-seems oddly familiar yet disconcertingly well alien Nothing much to speak of happens for at least the first 30 minutes & that in a way is the secret of the film&s success the audience has been nervously peering round every corner for so long that by the time the eponymous beast claims its first victim the release of pent-up anxiety is all the more effective Although Sigourney Weaver ultimately takes centre-stage the ensemble cast is uniformly excellent The remarkably low-tech effects still look good (better in many places than the CGI of the sequels) while the nightmarish quality of HR Giger&s bio-mechanical creature & set design is enhanced by camerawork that tantalises by what it doesn&t reveal Actors Sigourney Weaver Tom Skerritt John Hurt Veronica Cartwright Harry Dean Stanton Directors Ridley Scott Writers Ronald Shusett Dan O& Bannon Producers David Giler Gordon Carroll Ivor Powell Ronald Shusett Walter Hill Format PALLanguage English Subtitles English Subtitles For The Hearing Impaired English Region Region 2 (This DVD may not be viewable outside Europe Read more about DVD formats) Aspect Ratio 169
