Thanks to The Nostromo Files for putting up a short guest feature I wrote about the movie Alien (1979), horror films of the 1970s, and the psychology of horror. Head on over there to check it out, and also to see one of the coolest dedicated fan sites ever, all about the movie Alien. I’d love to know what you all think!
