Alien

In space no one can hear you scream.

“Listen to me! If we break quarantine, we could all die.”

Join us at the Park Theatre for a Double Creature Feature screening of one of our all-time favourite franchises! We’re going into deep space with Ridley Scott‘s iconic 1979 ALIEN followed by James Cameron’s 1986 sequel, ALIENS.

As one of – if not the – greatest action heroines to ever hit the silver screen, Sigourney Weaver’s unstoppable Ellen Ripley kicks all the asses and takes all the names throughout one of the most iconic sci-fi action franchises films of all time.

In this modern horror classic set in deep space, the crew of the commercial starship Nostromo is awakened from their cryo-sleep capsules halfway through their journey home to investigate a distress call from an alien vessel. The terror begins when the crew encounters a nest of eggs inside the alien ship. An organism from inside an egg leaps out and attaches itself to one of the crew, causing him to fall into a coma…. Also starring Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Ian Holm, Harry Dean Stanton, and Veronica Cartwright.

“The first part of the movie is essentially Marx in space, and the second part of the movie is Darwin in space.” (The Stranger)

“We marvel at how the filmmaker generates so much tension and sweat with a bare minimum of moving parts.” (Globe and Mail)
