Those ...Funny you would mention suspense and dread. Those are words I've used to describe Ridley Scott's Alien, and this movie actually reminded me of it in some ways.

Manages to create a real atmosphere of suspense and dread despite the (now somewhat hoaky-looking) special effects.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611137573408143348.post-38024301998044151952012-02-17T03:40:58.590-08:002012-02-17T03:40:58.590-08:00I've never seen this movie.
