My Experience: I honestly don’t remember a lot of the details about the movie as I saw it when I was a teenager. I remember the horror being intense as it relied less on scares and more on fear of the unknown. That’s my favorite kind of horror, so I should really see it again.
Yes. You should.
I’ve seen all the Alien movies several times. This is the one I was least able to appreciate at a young age and most able to appreciate by the time I got to college. This is one of my favorite movies ever, and I won’t watch it unless I know I can watch the whole thing without interruption for any reason.
