Documentary film maker Ridley Scott doing research for Alien.

Alien is a 1979 documentary film by Ridley Scott.

Reviewers have characterized Alien as "a brooding meditation on man's inhumanity to man."

Alien failed badly at the box-office, and the studios recouped costs by stripping most of support crew of their mitochondria and other vitals.

Scott barely managed to survive, barricading himself within a virtual identity shelter.
