so far you're not winning any of these arguements arguments...you should give up

I take filming classes, and anyone who knows anything about the horror genre, knows that, "Alien", is a horror flick with the Alien playing a slasher...I've studied horror, and know the genre like the back of my hand...You're just a moron who doesn't know shit about movies, and thinks just because a movie has aliens in it, it must be only Sci-Fi..."The Fly" is another example of Horror/Sci-Fi...Oh,! but wait,! maybe Maybe that isn't horror either. Maybe since "South Park" is animation, it can't be comedy...You, my friend, are a moron...You think you know more about a movie than the creators; it just shows what an egotistical idiot you are... And I bet you know it's a horror. You're just arguing for the sake of arguing, which is pretty sad.

If you'd like to be funny, you should take more English classes.
Since you have your PhD in film studies, maybe you should go to all the chains nation wide that sell DVD's and tell them that their filing system is wrong.
Explain to them that since the Aliens have sharp claws, and that it takes place in a inadequately lit space, and that these reasons alone make the movie a horror movie. Tell them to forget about the spaceship/planets the movies take place on, to forget about the movies taking place in the future, that the movie involves Aliens, high tech. weaponry along with high tech. gadgetry and lets not forget the androids.
I'm sure they will see things your way, you film expert you.

no one has ever said you can't call Alien a sci-fi. the whole argument has been that it is valid to call it horror as well.
and retail/rental places arent the authority on genre. most dont even have a film-noir section and yet it is the most fundamental cinematic genre, how do you explain that?
platinumk777:
I agree with NIK... I had the same freakin argument with my friend about The Sixth Sense. Now, my friends insist that sixth sense is solely classified as thriller, and I said that's bullshit. Sixth Sense is horror/thriller, because after all, ghosts are classified as an element of horror
Same with Alien... granted, it is sci-fi, but when the movie creates fear due to something unexplained (supernatural, etc.), such as the aliens all of a sudden killing the humans, that creates what we call nowadays as horror. So at the end, this movie is sci-fi/horror, and if you must speak otherwise, do so to a fucking wall

TV Guide, one of the most subscribed to magazines in the country classifies alians as sci fi, along with the digital cable company that i subscribe to...
sorry, you bitches lose
Now_Im_Not_Banned:
Jesus Christ, does anything get through your fucking thick skull? Nobody is denying it to be a Sci-Fi...But it is Horror as well...That makes it Horror/Sci-Fi...Are you that stupid? Is "Star Wars" and "Alien" the same type of movie? God fucking damn, I never knew someone could be so stubborn and dumb at the same time.
And what was that about English classes? I was the one who corrected YOUR spelling. Your corrections were bullshit. The only error I made was the comma after genre, which was simply a typo...Now son my fucking nuts in your mouth, moron.
