    How times have changed.

    Back in 1979 a simple but effective trailer like this made people scared and interested at the same time.

    Would this kind of trailer work today?? Nope. Because today's brainless movie audience want everything spoonfed to them. A deep voice telling the plot, lots of shots of sex, bad jokes and overly dramatic music.

    There's even some youtube personality who does "modern version" trailers for classic movies. They are entertaining at least. Highligting our time.

    The trailer works - Among other things, it captures the INTENSE DESPERATION that builds up in the story.

    This is false. A whole bunch of people who didn't watch Alien thought Prometheus had a badass trailer. The Alien connection had nothing to do with making that an effective trailer.
