Welcome to part two of our discussion of one of the greats in the horror and sci-fi genres, 1979’s Alien. We start with some great listener casting suggestions, and move on to reveal who the winners were amongst our casting choices, then move on to discuss what we love about the movie, and what we might change in a remake (there’s not a lot!). Along the way we talk about herding squirrels, how we appreciate but would want to enhance the ‘guy in a suit’ nature of the alien itself, Jer shares some of his frustration with Prometheus, and our love for the computers in the original.
