Alien at the Movies

This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.

It's "The Thing" meets "The 3:10 to Yuma"  in director/writer Quentin Tarantino's western murder mystery. A Wyoming winter blizzard strands 2 bounty hunters, a prisoner, a sheriff, a Confederate, a Mexican, a hangman, & a cow puncher in a stagecoach way station cabin during post Civil War. Audiences won't know who to trust & who is lying in this 3 hour drama with a very dark sense of humor & gory in-your-face bloody violence. Who will die & who will survive their cabin stay? Typical of Tarantino films, colorful characters are spouting off long dialogues of speech defining their personal views. This movie is not for the easily offended by full male nudity, racist remarks, crude sexual content, & brutal horrific over-the-top violence. Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, & Channing Tatum star. The outdoor scenes are sheer beauty in the snow but most of the film focuses inside the stagecoach & the cabin. Tarantino paints the ugly side of the Wild West in his version of good vs evil.

Alien gives it 3 "the Hangman's ride to Red Rock" stars out of 4.
