Day 17: A Movie That You See Often on T.V.

This post is part of a series of posts in The 30 Day Movie Challenge

While there are many movies on T.V. that seem to have gratuitous amounts of screen-time there aren't many that I am actually happy about being on so frequently.  This Movie however [Movie series actually] gets a decent amount of play and I think it deserves it.  This Movie is one Sci-fi Movie that has achieved a level of cult status where almost everyone you ask has seen it and for good reason.  This Movie mixes Thriller and Sci-Fi perfectly and portrays a story that actually holds up across several sequels and spin-offs, something which to this day not many Movies can claim to have achieved.  I know that I for one would go and buy another Movie if they were to make yet another sequel, I wouldn't even call it overdone, there are plot points and openings in the canon of this series' Universe That would allow sequels without the feeling of them being 'shoe-horned in'.

This Movie is called: 'Alien' and I have linked the Quadrilogy below which I would definitely recommend buying - if you haven't seen any of these Movies I would be in disbelief.

Here's the trailer:
