Ridley Scott featured a terrifying newly combined horror and science fiction fusion through his 1979 movie, Alien, which depicted a deadly alien encounter with Tom Skerritt and Sigourney Weaver in the leading roles. The art of film became a science fiction triumph due to its gripping tension together with its detailed world structure and the impactful monster design by H.R Giger. The influence of Alien remains visible in numerous space horror films that were released after it.
