"Alien will scare the peanuts right out of your M&M's. It was about time someone made a science-fiction thriller that thrills... and just boils everything down to the pure, ravishingly vulgar essence of fright." - Newsweek

"You can have Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and 2001. I'll take Alien." - Fort Worth Telegram

"You are in for jolts, shocks and some fairly gruesome and shuddering sights. With only his second feature, Ridley Scott has emerged as a major film maker. What he has to say is still not clear, but he certainly knows how to say it effectively." - Los Angeles Times

"This thing scared the shit out of me. Alien's a masterpiece of fright." - L.A. Weekly
