It's known as "Alien: The 8th Passenger" in international markets.

Well yeah sure, but the movie wasn't made in international markets, was it? Anyways, I didn't know that, I knew it was called that in Brazil but I assumed it was just a Brazilian thing (they love to change names of movies around here). I still always prefer to call movies by their original name.

According to IMDB it's a US/UK production so technically it was made in international markets. But even if it was a purely US production how would that make a title more original than another? In my opinion one title everywhere should be the norm as different titles will only cause confusion but ultimately the international titles as far as I know are decided by the original production. It's not others that decide to call a movie with a different title as only the makers who own the movie can decide the titles so even a different title is still an original title.

But like I said, I'd rather there would be one title only, different titles only bring confusion in my opinion. A typical example is Disney's Zootopia, overe here it's called Zootopolis which I hate. Also Moana is known here as Vaiana.

But in the case of Alien: The 8th Passenger I believe the international title conveys more efficiently what the movie is all about more than the simple Alien title. When you read that there is an 8th passenger you immediately realize the movie will center around this mysterious 8th passenger, the Alien creature.

Youll never be as afraid as when you where young. Even if now it looks fake as hell. I think this was one of the first scary movies my parents allowed me to watch cuz it had comedy as well. Non the less i could not sleep alone for like a week. I think i was like 7 or 8.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

IT remake.
Blair witch 2016.
Annabelle creation.
The conjuring series.

Those are all very scary and rank among my top horror choices.

The new one, or the old one?

The 1982 one, wasn't even aware there was a new one.

The original Exorcist freaked me out when i saw it the first time as a 19 year old.

Shame that nobody here has mentioned, oh, a certain burn faced child killer with blades on his fingers and a snazzy fedora.

That freak scared me shitless... 2 decades ago. Now, I can sit through any NoES movie completely unfazed. Not much really scares me, anymore.

Dead Silence, doe. Surprised nobody's mentioned that yet. I do see a lot of Conjuring mentions, though. It just goes to show what a horror mastermind James Wan truly is. I can't wait to see his take on the next series of Resident Evil films. 



Insidious Part III is another movie that made me jump at certain parts.

And ironically enough, it was also made by James Wan, albeit as a producer this time.

Man, that guy really knows how to make a scary movie.



Totally a circumstantial situation but Friday the 13th Part VIII as it was the first horror movie I had ever seen. Older friend of mine decided that 6 year old me should watch it.... yea that sucked.

I do love a good horror movie though these days.



Blair With Project. As a kid I was scared shitless. But I still loved the movie.
The second movie however was so bad that even as a kid I wasn't scared at all. The new one was ok. But today movies can't really scare me anymore. Which is kinda sad. I remember being too scared to play Resident Evil or Silent Hill on the PS1. Good times.
