Phil Pirrello decided to rank The 25 Scariest Sci-Fi Movies Ever Made<\/a>.\u00a0 I decided to play along using just his top five to see how we’d compare.\u00a0 The results are below…<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n

1. The Thing (1982)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

1. Alien: Because we had never seen a creature like this and because anyone in the cast could die the scare factor was increased.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

2. Alien (1979)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

2. The Thing: Watch the blood test scene and tell me that The Thing doesn’t belong in the top two. I dare ya!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

3. The Fly (1986)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

3. Aliens: If the colonial marines can’t stand up to them, what can? (Congrats to Sigourney Weaver for making the top 3 with two different directors!)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

4. Aliens (1986)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

4. The Fly: Equal parts scary and gory.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

5. The Invisible Man (2020)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\n

5. The Invisible Man: was much better than I thought it would be.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n
