DOUBLE BILL! The original theatrical cut of Ridley Scott's original outer-space thriller followed by James Cameron's Director's Cut of his chest-bursting sequel, presented back-to-back! Ridley Scott’s ambitious modern classic blends science fiction, horror and some stunning effects with a star turning performance from Sigourney Weaver. In the distant future, the crew of commercial starship Nostromo are heading home when they are awakened from their cryo-sleep capsules by a distress call. The crew are under obligation to investigate and the spaceship descends on the moon. Here they discover a hive colony of a mysterious creature and the ship's computer deciphers the message to be a warning, not a distress call. When one of the creature’s eggs is disturbed, the crew must deal with the consequences. Master filmmaker James Cameron takes on the sequel to the hit 1979 science fiction horror film Alien. Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) is the sole survivor of an alien attack on her ship. Fifty-seven years later, she awakens from hyper-sleep and agrees to return to the site with a troop of colonial marines to investigate.
