Alien Isolation (2014) with Andy Kelly (PC Gamer)

This week we investigate Creative Assembly's "Alien Isolation" (2014) with Andy Kelly (PC Gamer), and search for the scene at its center.

This is a podcast about movies, and the scenes that make them special. Usually on our show, we explore a film we love, a new release, or ask our guests to bring a movie they can’t wait to talk about. But this week, and throughout the summer, we’re devoting our show to 20th Century Fox’s Alien Franchise.
