Ridley Scott’s 1979 film is undoubtedly one of the most influential, enjoyable, and fascinating sci-fi films in cinema history. A space shuttle on its way back to earth receives a stress signal from a planet yet unvisited by man. When it arrives on the planet, one of the crew exploring its surface is attacked by a strange creature and escapes to the shuttle, but it soon becomes clear that the threat looms and will only grow more dangerous. This is a screening of a new 4K copy produced in celebration of Alien’s 40th anniversary. Please also note the documentary Memory.
