The Alien life cycle is interesting. Its the facehugger that actually carries the Alien "egg." The Queen lays the Facehuggers and then the little things are what encounter the victims. Attaching itself on certain sized creatures. People, large dogs, and anything else that meets its requirements. Poor Space Jockey was probably trying to get the Aliens far from its homeworld. Facehugger must have got him sometime while in space travel.
Giger certainly had his own style but the movie itself was unique in its direction, Ridley Scott really brought out the tension, style and horror that made Alien a classic.
@PEKT02 i have no idea to be honest sorry! but i know Ridley Scott is directing the new Alien prequel, hes got a story lined up about the space jockeys and aliens and hes got the guy who wrote lost to brush the story up make it even more crazy. im sure if you look for alien comics there will be some background for you there! try amazon.
There is still hope. According to sources, Ridley Scott and James Cameron have once again considered picking up the script they both were working on for Alien 5, where we'd get to meet the Space Jockeys. They first dropped it when FOX announced that they would rather go with AvP instead of an Alien 5. Cameron was outraged and swore never to touch the franchise again, but with a little luck we might see the Space Jockeys in the future.
@xxnightopsxx I quite agree, the AvP spinoffs have ruined the original Alien franchise, and made it probably more watchable for younger viewers, it never scared any of my eight year old nephews like the original ones did....
@thebbeenn alien prequel is on the cards, the writer of lost is penning it down with help from ridley scott who is directing it! but he said the whole alien thing has been done to death now and AVP ruined the films imagery so hes looking for new fresh horror ideas. and maybe HR Giger to come out of retirement to make a new fucked up alien
Yeah I read about that. The Alien franchise lost a great asset in Cameron leaving, but I'm phyched that R. Scott is still on board - and that he's gonna take the franchise in a new direction. Giger needs to be part of it.
I have been an Alien fan since I was 12 years old when Alien was released, I'm 42 now, and I can't stop admiring Giger's world and art, it's something that really takes you to a different and original dream, very good posting, and the original soundtrack music from the movie does enhance the video quite a lot, it's a shame the industry mixed the Alien concept with the Predator, it's like throwing a Monet, a Manet, a Rembrandt to the garbage ...
I totally agree. When I first saw Alien when I was a kid, I didn't make further than when Kane's chest exploded. As I grew older, and saw Aliens and Alien 3, I was just captured. The Alien is such an amazing creation, but so are also the Space Jockey and the Derelict ship. It's a shame they ruined the entire continuum, and a posibility of getting to know the Space Jockies - the "true" aliens. AvP is just a trite cross-over where the Aliens have been reduced to simple rabid animal creatures.
Yeah ! I thought of the same thing since I was a kid, it would've been a great story, if Shusett, O'Bannon, Ridley and Giger had worked somethig out in order to create an Alien 2 movie regarding the space Jockey, the Alien planet, the concept itself, using the same perfect quality that characterized the 1979 Alien film, unfortunately, we, the fans only got to see crappy and distorted Alien Saga movies in which the real art was lost even with Aliens and Alien 3 or Resurrection, but, so it was...
I instantly loved it, but had to take my taste with a slice of humour after reading the Wikipedia article:
"Scott had originally wanted the film to be scored by Isao Tomita. [...] Scott did not like Goldsmith's original main title piece (a sense of romanticism and lyrical mystery building throughout the film to suspense and fear), however, so Goldsmith rewrote it as "the obvious thing: weird and strange, and which everybody loved." "
This is the Alien Soundtrack. It is played at the beginning of Ridley Scott´s timeless original from 1979. It also appears in the movie when they climb down into the Alien spaceship.
It is so horrific but beautiful. The creature and its inception must have come from the deepest, darkest places from his mind. I have always found the creature to be beautiful. Great video; the music really adds to its presentation.
