I know someone's out there.

I know someone's out there. Hey there, listeners, welcome to horror movie club.

The show where two dudes who are not quite nerds, but not quite nobs, choose a horror movie each week to rate and review.

I'm Brian. I'm on the phone with Ashfin, and today we are discussing aliens from 1986,

keeping things rolling with our sequel, September.

Aliens was directed by James Cameron, written by James Cameron, Walter Hill, David Giler,

and starring Sigourney Weaver, Michael Bean, Bill Paxton, Lance Hendrickson, Paul Reiser, and Carrie Hen.

And in this movie, our hero Ripley from the first film is asked to return to the scene of the horror that happened in the first film 57 years later.

Oshfin, had you seen this one before?

Yeah, yeah.

I think I saw it again, like a few years ago too so

pretty pretty recently did a rewatch and you had probably seen that as a kid I think so yep yep

cool yeah you too I had seen it as a kid but I don't think I had seen it as an adult so it was

kind of like felt pretty new to me oh cool nice cool. Nice. Yeah. Listeners, if you're new to the show,

we're going to talk some spoiler-free background info on the movie for the first 15 or 20 minutes here.

But then before we, after we take our little break with a musical interlude, that's when we're

stepping into spoiler territory. So if you

haven't seen it, you probably have, but if you haven't seen it, you can listen for the first 15 or 20

here. And then you'll want to drop off and watch the movie. This is often talked about as more

of an action movie, whereas the first one was more of a horror movie. But do you think it's fair to

still call this one a horror,

Ashvin?
