In this episode of R Rating, we’re heading deep into space to revisit one of the most influential sci-fi horror films ever made — Ridley Scott’s Alien.

We break down what makes Alien such a masterpiece — from its slow-burn tension and groundbreaking creature design to Sigourney Weaver’s iconic performance as Ellen Ripley. We’ll talk about how Alien redefined both horror and science fiction, set a new standard for practical effects, and created a cinematic universe that continues to inspire filmmakers today.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the Alien franchise or discovering it for the first time, this episode dives into its themes of survival, corporate greed, isolation, and fear of the unknown — and why it still holds up decades later.

Join the R Rating crew for an in-depth, spoiler-filled conversation that celebrates one of the greatest horror movies ever made.
