"Alien, Terror in Space" is a affectionate tribute to Ridley Scott's sci-fi shocker and a concise compendium of 45 years of franchise history. Directors Anne Cutaia and Sophie Peyrard blend rarely seen archival footage-H. R. Giger's early biomech sketches, Sigourney Weaver's screen tests-with fresh interviews from actors, effects artists, and writers. The documentary traces a clear arc: from the first film's claustrophobic tactility through Cameron's action escalation to the more philosophical successors, without drowning in trivia. A standout sequence shows contemporary creature designers recreating Giger's air-brush techniques to demonstrate how the organic nightmare was translated into the digital age.

There is a minor drawback: the film skips a bit too briskly over weaker entries like "Alien vs. Predator," where a longer critical pause would have been welcome. Still, the project shines thanks to fluid editing, an atmospheric synth score that nods to Jerry Goldsmith's original theme, and a keen sense of why the Xenomorph remains captivating. For long-time fans it's a warm reunion; for newcomers a gripping crash course in terror among the stars-an entirely worthy salute to one of the most influential sci-fi franchises.
