Hey guys! This week on Revenge of the Show, we rip into Ripley! At least no xenomorphs got to her first, you know what I'm saying? Me neither...So, sit back, relax, and watch along with us as we're introduced to our first look at the nightmarish Alien...also the nightmarisher face huggers...gross.
What is Revenge of the Show? Revenge of the show is a weekly internet talk show where we discuss everything from the nerdiest things to the most mundane, and with what we like to call "the analog live tweet" for movies. The idea is for you to put on a movie and put on our videos at the same time. Watch along with us and pretend you have friends! Or just watch/listen in to the videos as we rib and berate the movies or talk through them about completely unrelated subjects. Either way, it's gonna be fun!
