8 Alien Movies To Keep You Awake At Night

Let’s give you a good pick-me-up this fine Tuesday with a list of the Alien movies for you to enjoy. Dive in and make sure to keep those face hugging bastards away from your face.

Alien introduced us all to the cast of the Nostromo before, spoiler alert, killing almost all of them off. Ellen Ripley, once Security Chief, takes it upon herself to escape the deadly alien.

With Aliens James Cameron hopped into the director’s chair and took the series into the realm of action.

For as much hate that this film, Alien 3, has inspired it has also created some die-hard fans. This was one of David Fincher’s early films and if you give it another look you may find some things that you’ll enjoy.

Alien: Resurrection came from the twisted mind of Jean-Pierre Jeunet. What else would you expect from the director of Delicatessen?

Alien vs. Predator was the first film to bring the two iconic aliens together. Unfortunately they weren’t able to resolve their issues without fighting.

Because one Alien vs. Predator movie wasn’t enough they gave us Alien vs. Predator: Requiem. We, as a society, must have done something horribly wrong to bring this upon ourselves.

Ridley Scott came back to the franchise to give us the prequel to the series with Prometheus. Think less fire bringing and more genetic code delivery.

The oft forgotten film of the franchise is E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Quite possibly the darkest of the franchise, especially with the alien living with that little boy.
