Voucherboys top 28 Magical Movies of all Time Part 9
We are continuing today with the Top 28 Magcial Movies countdown and have two fresh films selected for you today.
The criteria is that the movie had an impact on the audience and that it played more on the imagination of the audience than trying to trick them with fancy CGI. There will be 2 movies listed every day, so make sure you bookmark and get back to me every morning to follow along as the list gets ever closer to that number one Magical Movie.
12. Alien (1979)
Hold tight to your stomach! Alien may eat its way out and wreck havoc. This film managed to bring back the fear of the dark to most people as an Alien could lurk there with its acidic blood and its thirst for your blood. Still to this date it brings fears even in to the heart of online gamers that play the games based on this genre.
In the near future, during its return to the earth, a commercial spaceship Nostromo intercepts a distress SOS from a distant planet. The seven-member crew are woken up from the hypersleep and the spaceship subsequently descends on the planet. While exploring the planet, a three-member team of the crew discovers a derelict spaceship and a huge chamber inside it containing thousands of eggs.
When a curious team member goes too near the egg the parasite inside the egg attacks him, rendering him unconscious. He is brought back aboard, the spaceship takes off. After a little while the parasite dies and his host wakes up seemingly unruffled. But other crew members are unaware of the living nightmare which is going to descend upon them when the alien creature planted inside its unfortunate host would emerge.
With people scrambling for the nearest air lock as soon as Alien is mentioned makes it deserve a number 12 on our Magical Movie countdown list!
11. The Matrix (1999)
Movies are meant to makes us question, believe and embrace and there are few movies that brought philosphy so close to people as our number 11 managed to do. While its sequels left a lot to desire in terms of philosophy but made up for it in stunning visual stunts and special effects.
Thomas A. Anderson is a man living two lives. By day he is an average computer programmer and by night a malevolent hacker known as Neo. Neo has always questioned his reality but the truth is far beyond his imagination. Neo finds himself targeted by the police when he is contacted by Morpheus, a legendary computer hacker branded a terrorist by the government.
Morpheus awakens Neo to the real world, a ravaged wasteland where most of humanity have been captured by a race of machines which live off of their body heat and imprison their minds within an artificial reality known as the Matrix. As a rebel against the machines, Neo must return to the Matrix and confront the agents, super powerful computer programs devoted to snuffing out Neo and the entire human rebellion.
