That scene with Kane just fixing himself breakfast is honestly one of the best of the deleted scenes, even though it's like 30 seconds... (although I'm partial to the one with Parker and Brett with Ripley over the intercom). It adds like nothing to the movie and I can see why they cut it, but you can tell John Hurt cares about his acting in even that scene. John Hurt really made the best of like 5 minutes of screen time and only being known for his character's death. Even in the scene that made into the movie where Kane wakes up from the Facehugger and he's asked if he remembers anything about being "impregnated" and he assures them no (except for the "dream"), everything is fine, Hurt is making the exact opposite facial expressions, like he's trying to suppress the trauma. Honestly that's one of the more profound scenes in the movie just due to those facial expressions alone. I honestly think due to that scene Kane remembered everything and to an certain extent knew something was terribly amiss... RIP Sir John (and of course all of the rest of the cast of Alien who sadly passed (we only have 3 actors left)... Sigourney Weaver CANNOT die though. She is an immortal goddess and you cannot convince me otherwise.
Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott and The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter they are both my all time favorite sci-fi horror movies and it's because both of them have the most brutal scenes out of every other horror movie Alien (1979) Chestburster scene and The Thing (1982) Chesteater scene and The Facehugger is my favorite in Alien (1979) and The Norris-Things spider-Head and Head-Crab combined together is my favorite in The Thing (1982) as well:).
The very first scene shown here should've been part of the movie, IMHO. That "stain on the lungs" that seemingly "blocks the scanner" (maybe a clever diversion) is a quite interesting detail. It's highly unlikely that Ash didn't know about the facehugger's purpose. He might have known very early on. There's another scene where Ripley interrupts his investigations and something can be seen on a screen behind Ash - probably a close-up scan of Kane's chest where Ash could actually follow and study the growth of the Alien inside.
the actress who played Lambert ( Veronica right) seemed to be more talent than anyone else besides Weaver and of course Yaphet Kptto (who was a hell of an actor!) ..And if you pay attention he was actually the bravest of them all in Alien !
It's like they filmed the Dallas scene and were like- ok the movie is already fantastic but this scene hits hard in a whole other way, let's save this stuff- for the sequel. 🔥
It's the first time I've seen these in a couple of decades. I had them on a VCR casette with the 'Alien trilogy' 'facehugger' boxed set. Apparently in the scene (starting 07;25) where Lambert, Parker and Brett are outside the med bay and Ripley climbs down the ladder and says 'What the fuck is going on?' Veronica Cartwright really did strike Sigourney Weaver.
@scsc2255 He became famous for playing Mr Big in the James Bond film Live and Let Die prior to Alien, and I also remember him in The Running Man with Arnold Schwarzenegger
interesting that many of these scenes build up ripley as the protagonist/heroine. the first time you watch the theatrical cut it's not clear that she'll be the last one standing
As far as I can see, the extended Brett vs Alien scenes are the best. But still end it with a close up of the cat's face, like the shortened version. Don't show Ripley and Parker coming in. That's about it, really. The signal can work. But would require a slight dialogue change: Ripley: "Human?" Dallas: Sounds like it. Or, doubtful. Instead of "Unknown."
I spent a lot of years daydreaming about the original derelict shipwreck and the fossilized body of the pilot. It's one of the most interesting aspects of this movie. The untold story of a long ago event that the crew of the Nostromo stumbled upon... it really hooked me.
@cal6747 hello there my friend hi anyway I gave The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter and Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott five ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ because both of them are my childhood so I have considered both of them the greatest sci-fi horror movies ever created as well:).
It tried to make him into an egg to infect the others using the egg morphing process, which is done when there is no queen, so a drone will make a nest and drag victims (Brett and Dallas) to the nest and then proceed to turn them into an egg making sort of a mini hive. This is done until a royal facehugger is born.

@theshape6506 hello there my friend hello what's up anyway Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott and The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter they are both my favorite sci-fi horror movies and it's because I saw both of them as a little kid in the 1990s and Alien (1979) did a wonderful job at scaring me and I was stressed the whole time and The Thing (1982) that one scared me and disturbed me a lot more than any other horror movies and my mental health wasn't the same after watching it so I have considered both Alien (1979) and The Thing (1982) the greatest sci-fi horror movies ever created as well:).
@williamcooke6 I love The Thing 1982 as it's way better then Alien 1979. Thr part where Lambert and Parker are getting those tanks for thr escape shuttle is a good example...they are making so much noise, of course it attracts the Alien. Bunch of idiots....let's make all the noise and see what happens. Alien was a great movie, but the more I watch it, I can't stand the stupidity of the crew. They should have never let Kane back on board or at least contained him. Bunch of idiots. Alien is garbage.
@@theshape6506 well my friend The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter is my number 1 favorite sci-fi horror movie and Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott is my 2nd favorite sci-fi horror movie because both of them have the most brutal scenes out of every other horror movie Alien (1979) Chestburster scene and The Thing (1982) Chesteater scene as well:).
@@theshape6506 oh well my friend my three most favorite horror movies are The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter and Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott and The Shining (1980) directed by Stanley Kubrick and it's because all three of them are all about isolation and I consider all three of them the most scary movies ever created on the top of my list as well:).
