for comedy, Spaceballs has got to be mine. Funny thing, I hadn’t seen Alien by that point (I did later when I was 12) so John Hurt’s cameo whooshed over me. But when I finally saw the ‘79 movie, things started clicking in my head when it came to the dinner scene. To say I was horrified would be an understatement, that scene shook me for a the rest of the day

I honestly think seeing Spaceballs first compounded the horror effect in Alien
