Brent Zacky

In 1979, Alien burst onto the scene with a strong female lead in the form of Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) battling the ultimate biomechanical creature. The brilliant and terrifying result reinvented the horror and science fiction genres, creating one of the most successful and celebrated film franchises in Hollywood history. This award-winning, feature-length documentary explores the dark, nightmarish world of the popular series with compelling interviews, never-before-seen outtakes and extensive highlights from all four big-screen incarnations. John Hurt narrates a compelling look at the groundbreaking "Alien" tetralogy of chillers. Featuring surprising behind-the-scenes anecdotes, rare screen tests and footage, and interviews with Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, Michael Biehn and creature creator H.R. Giger, this documentary provides a thrilling overview of one of sci-fi cinema's most beloved franchises. 109 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital Surround.
