Alien: Isolation
Yes, this is a direct sequel to the first Alien film and sees Amanda Ripley investigating her mother’s disappearance. However, Alien: Isolation is best known for the horrifying cat and mouse game with the Xenomorph. Clever and capable of sniffing you out when it’s not straight-up outplaying you, the Xenomorph is nigh-unkillable and can seemingly show up at the worst times. Combined with the stellar retro-futuristic art direction and pacing, the Xenomorph in Alien Isolation helps channel the horrifying atmosphere of the older films.
