25 best alien movies ever – A Trip to the Moon (Voyage dans la Lune) (1902)

A Trip to the Moon (Voyage dans la Lune) (1902)

Widely regarded as the first ever science fiction film, Georges Méliès' infamous short was also the first film to feature aliens – the capering Selenites. All of which would count for nothing if it was rubbish. Fortunately, it's not – Méliès' pioneering special effects make it look like… well, like nothing on Earth.

    Critters? What?

    What about 'Brother from Another Planet'? Or 'Buckaroo Banzai'? Heck even 'Santa Clause vs. The Martians' ranks higher on the interesting aliens list than 'Critters'!

    Seriously tho' - fun read, good list.
