I don't doubt this is true but I feel like you couldn't have a worse source than a Valnet site

I get it. The Xenomorph's head kinda looks like a dick. Giger is a perve yada yada yada.
But jeez. I am honestly so tired of reading about how phallic the Xenomorph is. They're beautiful hungry guys, and they've been done so dirty by time and freshman film studies essays.
wtf did I just read?
Actual artistic insight into the decision making that went on during the production of Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece Alien. Back when people actually put thought and effort into movies.
Alien trilogy is must-watch yearly for me, but the whole thing reads like insane tumblr fan fiction! I don't know if the director actually said that, but If you follow any scifi or fantasy medium about cosmic or demonic monsters that scares the shit out of people, you'll find similar horrific themes on how the monster preys on its victims. I can promise you no man or woman watched aliens and screamed payback!
Do you lack comprehension skills? It is literally spelt out for you what it means...
are you already, mate? bad day?
i was just about to write the same sentence.
I must be one of the few who just didn't care for Alien. I still don't understand what makes this movie so well-received.
A horror movie is well done when it able to instill fear and anguish.

These folks have to try to ruin everything even the classics. If described like this Alien movies seem less scary and more dump. I have to forget this ASAP because i really liked the original movies.
