4.0 out of 5 stars Worthy addition for Alien fans, October 20, 2003

This review is from: The Alien Saga (DVD)

This two-hour documentary, narrated by John Hurt (who played the first "victim"), chronologically describes the production of all four films and compiles interviews with many of the principal players (H.R. Giger, Sigourney Weaver, Ridley Scott, James Cameron, etc.) The highlight is the first 50 minutes or so, which covers the groundbreaking first film, the development of the alien creature, the psychological aspects of the script, and the creation of the set. For those looking forward to the upcoming 'Alien: Director's Cut', there is even a discussion of the controversial deleted scene. Overall, I recommend this to anyone who is a fan of the franchise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this with the 4-two disk sets and you have the ultimate, February 19, 2004

This review is from: The Alien Saga (DVD)

Buy this, along with the 4 2 disk Alien movies, and you've made your own VASTLY superior "Quadrilogy". This is far better and more fun to watch than the Quad 9th disk.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic chronology!, February 18, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Alien Saga (DVD)

This is a fabulous sequencing of the movies, giving details on casting, interviews, and set design that no other special dvds have done. It contains material you will not see in the sets or the 9th Legacy disk. The best "extra" disk I have seen...bar none, because it does so in a interesting and well paced manner. A must for true fans.
