Ridley Scott's unforgettable classic, Alien, premiered forty five years ago, and is regarded as one of the best sci-fi horror films in history.
In celebration, a special screening of the film is scheduled for 26 April to celebrate Alien Day. Also in anticipation of new franchise entry Alien: Romulus releasing in cinemas 15 August of course!
During its return to the earth, commercial spaceship Nostromo intercepts a distress signal from a distant planet. When a three-member team of the crew discovers a chamber containing thousands of eggs on the planet, a creature inside one of the eggs attacks an explorer. The entire crew is unaware of the impending nightmare set to descend upon them when the alien parasite planted inside its unfortunate host is birthed.
Directed by Scott and written by Dan O'Bannon, Alien stars Tom Skerritt, Sigourney Weaver, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and Yaphet Kotto.
