Scary Thoughts #119 - Alien (Ridley Scott – 1979) [part one]

Alien (1979) is a perfect movie. Which is why there is an entire Weyland-Yutani freighter worth of commentary about it. In this, our first ever two-part episode, we explore what makes the film exceptional and we explore the conversation around popular critical touch points—like Ripley's panties. As working class heroes ourselves, we bring new thoughts to the class dynamics of the ship's mission and the role of middle management in making things worse for everyone. If this leaves your chest bursting with anticipation for the next episode, fear not! It's in the can and will be released shortly, just as MOTHER intended.
