I have seen both the B&W Hawks version, and the '82 version multiple times. And while I liked the first, it doesn't hold up today. You really think an 18 year old kid is going to relate to the analogies being drawn in the 'original?' The dialogue is old fashioned, and so is the alien. It is a good movie, but the Carpenter version is more effective as a thriller for me.
By the way, I'm not some punk kid, I'm old old old! I tells ya!
