RiffTrax Presents - Alien - sample!

Hey you young whippersnappers -- you thought that "Alien" was just Predator's sparring partner, didn't you? Not so, Padawans.

"Alien" (who, in a series of HUGE coincidences, happens to BE an alien, AND stars in the movie ALIEN! Weird!!) first took Hollywood by storm during the heady, Jimmy Carter-filled days of 1979....back when a long, long pan over a hot-glued spaceship miniature made the first generation of geeks wheeze in delight, and reach for their inhalers.

ALIEN starred a pair of plain white underpants worn by a young, little-known actress named Sigourney Weaver.... who later went on to start in ALIENs 2 though 37. (The underpants retired to Sedona, AZ. shortly after filming.) It also featured a pre-Hobbit Sir Ian Holm, a pre-wand-wizard John Hurt, and a pre-Mormon Mafioso Harry Dean Stanton. And you'll never forget Bursty, the impish-but-loveable little chestbursting alien baby!

Join Bill Corbett and Kevin Murphy as they riff on this sci-fi / horror / underpants classic.

NOTE: This RiffTrax Presents will only work with the Director's Cut of Alien!

This is the proof (as if there was need for one) that the MST3K/Rifftrack idea works even for great movies! :)

"Is he being sexy? Eeesh" lmao

@ladyjaye27 Yeah it's totally possible. Me and my friends do it when we're watching movies no matter how good they are. Also horror films are very riffable.

You know the first time I watched Alien I was too young and too Russian to afterwards remember the guy who several years ago became the priest in 5th Element... and then I watched 5th Element and I didn't recognize that guy. And now I'm watching this, and I'm like "Holy crap, that's the priest from 5th element! Memory loss sucks... haha

Insure...is not the same meaning as Ensure. I have my doubts about that computer. Its going a bit computer senile.

Y'know, I'd like to see an Event Horizon Rifftrax.

Wait... Mike didn't riff this one?

[DelusionalSyko]

Okay I watched the whole movie...I'd have to say the funniest thing in this movie is when the alien burst through the chest of the guy on the table and runs across the table one of the guys goes "Oh...it's a Muppet" I was laughing so hard I started crying...the special effects of the alien running across the table looked just like a Muppet.

"shes been shoplifting again" would have been a better comment for an Alien Resurection Rifftrax.

You WILL tolerate my lactose!
