Sean is in the hot seat this week to watch the 1979 sci-fi classic Alien for the first time. But fear not, Alex and Edwin are there to peel off any facehuggers that get snagged in Sean's beard. We break down the scope of the movie, how they pulled this off in the 70's, and deep dive into the decisions that made Alien the heralded icon it remains to this day.

So unlock your sleeping pods, top off your flamethrower tanks, and get ready for a thrill ride that'll burst right out of your chest!
