Perhaps the declining effect of the X-Files is no longer a major part of the cultural consciousness of UFOs, aliens and crop circles. At least we can say that this situation is compared to 15-20 years ago.
So it makes sense to have a World UFO Day that will remind us every year that space continues to contain endless mystery and will be a tremendous inspiration for our most creative filmmakers. But if you’re tired of watching the sky, you’ve always got the option of watching television to watch one of the science fiction classics that includes drama, horror, and in some cases alien creatures falling into Earth.
The volume of prospective candidates for the Top 10 list means that some of them must remain outside the list. That’s why movies like Starship Troopers, Repo Man or Spice World: The Movie are not on the list. Here is top 10 classic alien films with The Independent selection:
Best 10 Alien Films
The Blob, (1958 / Irvin Yeaworth)
Because we are so keen to add metaphors to alien films, The Blob refers to everything from the Cold War analogies to a harsh warning of the dangers of capitalism. But the film is also about a giant adhesive that destroys everything that comes with it.
The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976 / Nicholas Roeg)
The film-like equivalent of the abduction experience by aliens must be something like The Man Who Fell to Earth. The film gives up all the logic and concept of linear time and emphasizes the power of David Bowie.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978 / Philip Kaufman)
Jack Finney’s novel has been filmed before, but it was the adaptation of Philip Kaufman in 1978, which best reflected the Cold War paranoia of the time. Donald Sutherland, Leonard Nimoy and young Jeff Goldblum are trying to cope with an alien invasion that has displaced people with mindless counterparts.
Alien (1979 / Ridley Scott)
Original and still the best. And not only for the Alien sequels that have been going on for many years, but for all the alien movies. Sigourney Weaver stars as the smart and compassionate Ellen Ripley.
E.T .: The Extra-Terrestrial (1982 / Steven Spielberg)
A film that tells a generation (and to be honest to their parents) the importance of friendship, albeit with an intergalactic alien. MEAT. a magical cinematic experience and production in which Steven Spielberg proved his strength as a filmmaker.
Liquid Sky (1982 / Slava Tsukerman)
Aliens who come to New York in search of drugs are experiencing greater experiences by discovering sexuality. The film, which deals with sex, drugs, art and sexism, draws attention with Anne Carlisle’s leading role.
Star Man (Starman, 1984 / John Carpenter)
If E.T. If you were an incredibly handsome man in his 30s who looked unusually like your dead lover, Starman, E.T. I would. In this romantic drama of 1984, Karen Allen, the sorrowful wife, is startled by the arrival of the alien, who takes the form of her dead husband. Jeff Bridges received an Academy Award nomination for his role as Starman.
Contact (1997 / Robert Zemeckis)
In the film, we watch Jodie Foster as he struggles to meet with aliens after contacting them. The film also deals with issues that science fiction films such as bureaucracy and xenophobia are not often mentioned. We haven’t seen Robert Zemeckis for the same quality in years.
The Faculty (1998 / Robert Rodriguez)
The Faculty could only be filmed during Scream and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In the film, a different group of high school teachers believe that they are aliens. These students include Elijah Wood, Josh Hartnett and Clea DuVall.
Under the Skin (2013 / Jonathan Glazer)
Film, vizyoner yapımcı Jonathan Glazer’ın Scarlett Johansson’ın canlandırdığı ayartıcı ve meraklı uzaylının gözünden kendimizi gördüğümüz karakteristik bir şekilde tuhaf denemesi. Under The Skin rahatsız edici, korkutucu ve alışılmadık biçimde hassas. Film, uzaylı ziyaretçileri tasvir etmenin yeni yollarını henüz bitirmediğimizin bir kanıtı.
