“IN SPACE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM”
Some movies change the way we view films. Some movies make us squirm in our seats and feel every emotion there is. Others, like Ridley Scott’s ALIEN, shocked and even sicked some theater goers when it was released back in 1979 and now, for this years “ALIEN DAY” the one that started it all, will be back in theaters.
The Alien: 45th Anniversary Re-Release haunts theaters for “Alien Day” on Friday, April 26, 2024! You can check listings and grab tickets through Fandango now.
In celebration of the 45th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi/horror masterpiece, the film will return to theaters for a limited time on April 26, known worldwide as Alien Day.
Plus, before the film, attendees will see “Alien: A Conversation with Ridley Scott & Fede Alvarez,” where Fede Alvarez sits down with Ridley Scott to discuss the film that started the iconic franchise.
You can watch a clip from that special bonus feature down below. In this clip, Ridley Scott and Fede Alvarez discuss the film’s iconic Chestburster scene. One person who couldn’t believe his eyes back in 1979? Stanley Kubrick! Ridley Scott relays a funny story to Alvarez, recalling the time when Kubrick called Scott wondering how the hell he pulled the nightmarish sequence off.
This film scared the bejusus out of us and for good reason. It was like JAWS but in space. the less you saw of the actual creature, the more your mind would imagine and you’d end up scaring yourself. We’ll be in the theaters on 4-26-2024 and we think you should too.
