The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

This is an absolutely fantastic show. Have folks watched all eight episodes yet? The final episode goes pretty far into Alien territory.

I watched the first episode last night. Excellent show, I was really impressed with the way it captured the early eighties feel. Definitely will binge-watch it.

Rewatching Stranger Things and at the end of episode 7 ("The Bathtub") when the creature attacks Will you can hear the distinctive "WOO-oo" sound from the Alien/Aliens/Prometheus trailers. Given the other Alien references there's no way this is a coincidence.
