What older movies made a good use of either side stepping special effects or have effects that somehow still hold up today? Why are they good movies?

    Alien is a 10/10 for me. Showed my wife last year and she was indeed on the edge of her seat for the duration. And she hates science fiction!

    So much of the movie has leaked into pop culture and memes that it’s easy to forget just how horrifying it is, how well crafted. I hadn’t sat down and really watched it for decades until I watched it with my wife.
