Deadeye 1,575 Homebrew Team · Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Alien is a classic. Great thriller sci fi horror film. All the effect still hold up. Perfect for late night watching. Also the 40th anniversary just passed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesRobot 5,308 Events Team · Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 What's wrong with Oliver Stone? Watched Conan the Barbarian the other night and it was glorious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profholt82 59 Member · Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I like his earlier stuff, but Natural Born Killers is sort of where he went off the deep end with the hyper-kinetic music video editing style that I personally don't care for. It's worth seeing the movie once, as there is some worthwhile stuff in it, but compared to Alien? I mean, come on. Alien is an all time sci-fi horror classic whose impact shaped the genre for years to come while Natural Born Killers is a largely experimental movie which is not even considered among Stone's better works. Like I said, there is some worthwhile stuff in it, as much of the movie acts as a critique on 90s media and cultural sensibilities; albeit, in a highly exaggerated manner, but compared to Alien, it's no contest.
