Ep. 119: Alien (1979)

Here kitty kitty...

This week, Matt and Cody continue their journey (chronologically) with the tow that started it all. The boys wax poetic about patience in building suspense, powerful acting ensembles, parallels to the circle of life, the beeps and boops of effective sound design, and the quaint use of technology from  yesteryear. Not to mention: ineffective felines, shocking chest pains, the fear of  going through a thin layer of mist, gender dynamics in heroic people, terrifying creature aesthetics, and why everyone refers to Sir Ridley Scott as such.

Thanks for listening and whatever you do, always go back for the cat!
