PRESENTS

Really well crafted in most aspects. I love th creature, I love the characters, I love the location. I wish there was a little bit more exploration of the anatomy of the creature. There are a couple moments when they are doing to atopsy that would have been elevated with a little more sciece jargon, but its not really needed i guess. The pacing is great. The acting is very 80's which is fun to watch, high energy, but maybe not "good". The highlight is definetly the alien transformation sequences. Such an excelltn combination of animatronics, puppetry, stop motion and lots of custom made goo. This is a landmark in monster movie history and it still holds up now.
