Once, when it completed its mission and returned to Earth loaded with space minerals, it suddenly received a set of strange signals. As this may be a distress signal, the spacecraft was instructed to search and rescue the signal source. ?
Introduction:
If you just think Alien is a work that shows off terror and killing, you are wrong. The classic and greatness of Alien is that it completely redefines the sub-types of sci-fi horror movies. Its aesthetic style and metaphorical techniques directly led to the birth of a large number of parody works such as grotesque and iron warrior in the next 33 years, and its far-reaching influence was also evident in later sci-fi classics such as The Matrix and City of the Soul.
The claustrophobic environment and deep space have become the active stage of this ugly monster. Due to the limitation of funds, the film adopts the general form of great white shark. The narrow cabin and the wet ground are almost suffocating. In the film, the crew are swallowed by inexplicable creatures hidden in the dark. You never know where the danger comes from, when and why.
