Alien (1979)

Imagine, if you will, the vast emptiness of space, the echoing corridors of nothingness, lit only by the countless stars thousands of miles away dotting the black backdrop. Now, imagine a massive ship sliding through the abyss of space, traveling through galaxies to a destination unknown. Its boxy features and immense volume seem miniscule in the greater scheme of the vast, unformed territory. Travel inside the ship, and move through its rough designs and simplistic layout. The silence inside the space ship is only matched by the stillness on the outside of the ship’s massive walls. All of this is broken by the operating of the ship’s computer system as it flickers to life, an operating system showing brightly off the glass mask of a helmet sitting in the captain’s seat. You’ve just experienced the opening of Alien, probably one of the best films ever made.
