Paul McCartney named his favourite horror film of all time
The Beatles have always been very transparent about their love for cinema, especially counter-culture classics such as the Monty Python films. Both John Lennon as well as Paul McCartney loved foreign films as well, regularly citing cinematic magicians such as Federico Fellini as one of their favourite filmmakers of all time along with other important landmarks in the history of cinema.
While George Harrison put up his own funds for Monty Python’s Life of Brian and Lennon gave $1million to Alejandro Jodorowsky to make whatever he wanted to, McCartney was particularly drawn to the horror genre. In a Q&A session on Twitter, the music legend was asked about his favourite horror film of all time by a fan who was eager to know about McCartney’s taste in cinema.
He replied, “Alien would be my favourite for the bit of chest-popping!” while referring to the 1979 sci-fi classic by Ridley Scott.

Selected by us as one of the greatest horror films ever made, it is no surprise that McCartney chose this as his top pick.
