Crew Expendable: Ridley Scott's Alien  Might as well not screw around and start 2024 with a bang . . . This month Mr. Chavez and I dive into the world of Ellen Ripley and the Xenomorphs. At this point it's been nearly 45 years since we were first introduced to the crew of the Nostromo: Tom Skerritt, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, Ian Holm, John Hurt, Yaphet Kotto, and - in her film debut - Sigourney Weaver. Scott (in his second feature) created a science fiction world unlike anything seen before and rarely equaled since. Taking a Horror staple (monster/haunted house) that could have easily been a cliché-ridden embarassment, Scott crafted a new vision that leaned heavily on the practical and portrayed a future that we could realistically expect.
