Aliens: A Retrospective

"There are a lot of intricate and compelling mythologies out there in films, books, comics, and games that I’m a big fan of, but I will say right off the bat that few — if any of them — touch the primal nerve that the Alien franchise touches. I don’t think it’s coincidental that the monster in Ridley Scott’s original film was inspired by artist H.R. Giger’s work, and that it evolved into what it did: Giger hits a very elemental nerve, especially in his more abstract artwork, and that sort of elemental menace is turned into screen presence with the sleek and vicious xenomorph of the Alien franchise."

It's hard to comprehend the reach and scope of the Aliens Universe until it is drawn out like that. Great article from Sega. (!!!!????)
