The History Of Aliens In Film

Gelungener Zusammenschnitt von Adam Schleichkorn und Bryan Menegus für Digg, bei dem wir einen Streifzug durch die cineastische Geschichte der Außerirdischen geboten bekommen. Von kriseligen Untertassen am Faden bis hin zu CGI-Monstern der Moderne. Aliens haben bereits einen recht langen Weg hinter sich.

„From their earliest cinematic appearance in Georges Méliès’s „A Trip to the Moon“ in 1902, our conception of life beyond Earth has changed to reflect our hopes and fears, the technology we’ve mastered, and our growing knowledge of the universe. Watch our depictions of extraterrestrial life change over nearly 100 films and 112 years.“
