10. Alien

Sigourney Weaver as Ripley wearing a spacesuit in the movie Alien.

Release date:1979

The rest of the crew wonder what to do with Kane, but little do they know the monster they have invited on board their ship. Alien really is as terrifying a watch today as back in the late ‘70s. Scott’s masterful direction ratchets up the tension while Weaver gives her star-making performance as  Ripley. It’s also worth noting that Alien: Romulus takes place between the events of Alien and Aliens, making this something of a must-watch for anyone going to see Fede Álvarez’s new movie.

Follow-up with Aliens:The sequel that takes the franchise in an unexpected direction, swapping horror for action under James Cameron’s direction. Some will argue Aliens is even better than Alien, though we will leave that debate for another article…

9. Prometheus

(Image credit: 20th Century Fox)

Noomi Rapace as Elizabeth Shaw, Michael Fassbender as David, and Logan Marshall-Green as Charlie Holloway in the movie Prometheus.

Release date:2012

Following two fairly average Alien sequels, Alien 3 and Alien Resurrection, plus two crossover spin-offs with the Predator franchise (more on those later), Ridley Scott decided to revamp his Alien series with a prequel that delves into the origins of mankind. Prometheus ends up being less like an Alien movie and more a philosophical look at what makes a human a human, which, at the time of release, proved a controversial choice. Fans wanted moreXenomorphsand less Michael Fassbender as an android butler.

Follow-up with Alien Covenant:Scott heard those fans complaining about not having enough intergalactic monsters in Prometheus and decided to make a sequel that amounts to a greatest-hits collection of Alien moments – chest-busting galore.

8. Prey

(Image credit: Disney Plus)

Amber Midthunder as Naru running from the Predator in the movie Prey.

Release date:2022

Alien: Romulus takes a classic franchise and cuts off all the fat (read: sequels) to deliver a terrifying, standalone sequel. Sound familiar? Prey served the exact same function for the Predator movies – essentially a soft reboot of the series with a new protagonist, all the while paying homage to what came before. In Prey, Amber Midthunder plays Naru, a member of a Comanche tribe who becomes prey for an intergalactic monster.

If you’re after a tense horror that combines with a sci-fi hook, then check out our four-starPrey review. TheDisneyPlus movie is the perfect introduction to another franchise that has something of a unique relationship with the Alien movies. Dan Trachtenberg directs, and the filmmaker is currently working on a follow-up, a separate Predator spin-off titled Badlands.

7. Alien vs. Predator

A xenomorph and the Predator hissing at each other during the movie Aline vs. Predator.

Release date:2004

Following the mediocre reception to the third and fourth Alien movies, and with the Predator franchise laying dormant, Fox decided there was only one thing to do: take a weird crossover comic from 1989 and make it a reality. Thus, Alien vs. Predator was born. At the time, James Cameron was not happy about the series going in such a wayward direction and ceased work on a fifth Alien movie while likening the idea to Frankenstein Meets Werewolf.

Follow-up with Aliens vs. Predator Requiem:Someone out there loved Alien vs. Predator enough because a sequel was made. It’s not very good… but if you are after more Xenomorphs, then here they are.

6. Evil Dead

(Image credit: Sony Pictures)

Jane Levy as Mia Allen covered in blood during the movie Evil Dead.

Release date:2013

Fede Álvarez has previous experience rebooting famous franchises. Back in 2013, the director brought the Evil Dead back to cinemas with a terrifying “re-imagining” of Sam Raimi’s beloved classic. Like the original, Evil Dead is the simple story of a group of friends heading out to a cabin in the woods, finding a haunted book, reading aloud an incarnation, and awakening an evil spirit intent on killing them. Just your ordinary weekend away.

Álvarez removes some of the low-budget original’s campy humour, instead infusing his version with a sense of dread. In parts, it can be a slow build, but the result is a blood-curdling gore-fest that’s the ultimate experience in gruelling terror. Jane Levy, who leads the film, would go on to star in Álvarez’s other brilliant horror, Don’t Breathe.

Follow-up with Evil Dead Rises or Don’t Breath:The Evil Dead Rises is another great instalment in the franchise, while Álvarez’s own follow-up, Don’t Breathe, demonstrates the evolution of one of the genre’s most interesting filmmakers.

5. Blade Runner

(Image credit: Warner Bros)

Harrison Ford as Rick Deckard fixing a machine in the movie Blade Runner.

Release date:1982

After the success with Alien, Ridley Scott returned to the sci-fi genre with another masterpiece, Blade Runner. Though not featuring the same overt horror as Alien, Scott’s follow-up showcases a bleak future for mankind as Harrison Ford’s Deckard, a former police officer, hunts down bioengineered humanoids, called replicants, to “retire” them.

However, his own beliefs about what makes a human are called into question. For anyone with even a passing interest in sci-fi, Blade Runner is a must-watch. But considering this is one of Scott’s other foundational films, anyone heading into Alien: Romulus, which Scott produced, could do a lot worse than seeking out this highly influential classic. It’s also one of thebest sci-fi moviesaround, so check it out!

Follow-up with Blade Runner 2049:With no exaggeration, it’s wild that director Denis Villeneuve pulled off Blade Runner 2049, a sequel that matches – and, some would argue, surpasses – the original Blade Runner.

Travis Fimmel as Marcus walking in a desert during the TV series Raised by Wolves.

Release date:2020 – 2022

Follow-up with Dark:This is another brilliant, lengthy, and complicated viewing experience. There are no androids here; instead, expect time-travel shenanigans and more existential questions about humanity. Dark is one of thebest shows on Netflix, period.

3. Event Horizon

An astronaut by a giant glowing machine in the movie Event Horizon.

Release date:1997

Follow-up with Resident Evil:If you’ve watched Alien vs. Predator and Event Horizon, you might as well go all-in on W.S. Anderson and watch the original Resident Evil, arguably his best film.

2. 10 Cloverfield Lane

(Image credit: Paramount Pictures)

Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Michelle in 10 Cloverfield Lane.

Release date:2016

Another repeat director. Before Prey, Dan Trachtenberg directed 10 Cloverfield Lane, a spin-off of the found-footage sci-fi Cloverfield that replaces the original’s grand scale with an intimate setting. Mary Elizabeth Winstead, John Goodman, and John Gallagher Jr. play three people locked in a small bunker. Goodman’s Howard insists they cannot leave because the air outside has been poisoned following an alien attack, which Winstead’s Michelle doesn’t truly believe.

Of course, the horror comes from the other humans, but 10 Cloverfield Lane shares Alien’s DNA in being a tense chamber piece set primarily in a single location. Trachtenberg does a wonderful job keeping things frizzling along at a rapid pace, culminating in a surprising conclusion that, as you would expect, ties into the greater Cloverfield franchise.

1. The Thing

(Image credit: Universal Pictures)

An alien spider crawling towards the camera in the movie, The Thing.

Release date:1982.

Despite being a box-office bomb because it was released at just the wrong time (E.T. gave everyone their alien fix that summer), The Thing has become a bonafide classic, thanks in part to Rob Bottin’s wonderful, gruesome special effects.

Follow-up with The Fog:This is another Bottin/Carpenter collaboration, this one about a mysterious fog that’s actually a group of vengeful spirits. Released two years before The Thing, The Fog has similarly undergone a critical reassessment, with Carpenter himself calling it a “mini horror classic”.
