Alien essay: Watch the movie Alien (1979) and submit an essay.
Alien Critique
The movie Alien (1979) was one of the most inventive and horrifying science fiction movies ever made. The creature in Alien is unusually well-thought for a
movie. Watch the movie. Observe the behavior and different life stages of the alien. Then write a 1000+ word essay describing the real-world examples of
animals that are similar to or that inspired this creature. Pay particular attention to:
The egg cases
The life stages (metamorphosis) of the creature
Occupying a host as part of the life cycle
The acid blood
See if you can find an example of the cool jaw structure of the alien
How does the Alien fit our criteria for monsters/scary things discussed in the introduction to this class?…
