Season 23
James Cameron, hot off the success of THE TERMINATOR, makes one of the greatest sequels of all time: ALIEN$... and a franchise was born!
What can you say... it's a classic. But do Alex and Ben like it? I know you're all waiting to hear what Alex and Ben have to say about ALIEN$. Here's a preview: we like it fine! It just is not the type of movie that does much for us. But it's also a highly influential film and a peak of 80s action cinema so what do we know?
Join us next week for the #twisted third entry in the ALIENS franchise, ALIEN 3 directed by David Fincher.
