A mainstay on the genre-film circuit, Palace are proud to present the brand new, director approved 4K restoration of Alien, in honour of its 40th anniversary. The film that put Sigourney Weaver and director Ridley Scott firmly on the map, Alien follows the crew of commercial spaceship Nostromo, as they respond to a distress signal from a distant planet. Finding thousands of eggs of unknown origin upon arrival, the crew inadvertently unleashes a terror beyond their wildest dreams, in this H.R. Giger-inspired, downright frightening masterpiece. Fixing the oversaturation and overcorrected green tint of recent releases, with a stunning new level of detail revealed in the all-new scan, Alien hasn’t looked this good since it was initially released – relive the horror of Alien once again, or discover it for the first time, on the big screen.
