A genre-bending sci-fi horror masterpiece released by the great Ridley Scott... ALIEN! Alien dropped in 1979 and nothing has been the same since.

H.R. Giger's art paints the walls of Alien, and with it comes all of the dark and pseudosexual imagery, incredible influence on Oscar winning production design, and the scariest alien we've ever witness and has yet to be topped! From Jerry Goldsmith's haunting score, to the layers of subtext throughout, and some of the most famous and unforgettable scenes to ever shock audiences worldwide- come explore the Nostromo with us as we dive very deep into 'Alien' and discuss what makes this film immortal!
