Don't recall this having been mentioned, but tonight and tomorrow are the last days to see the original "Alien" at the big screen theater.  I thought I saw a reference to 4K Remastered but don't hold me to that.

Still one of the scariest movies ever.

Oh E36 M3! Thanks for the heads up. That changes my plans for tonight...

Not to be a smarta$$ but scary space movies typically use A LOT of black.

The Mummy is also having a 25th anniversary release in theaters now, too...

When Alien had it's 25th Anniversary, I saw it in a theater when it returned for a short run. And oh man, was that an experience. It was so good on the big screen. Highly recommend seeing it that way if you can!

Trying to remember if we showed this in school. I feel like we did. Pretty sure we did. At midnight. And then everyone had to walk home. :)

In reply to RX Reven' :

At least black is better than "sorority girl runs upstairs instead of out the front door like a sane person".

If you can enjoy suspense movies, you need to fix that.  I think I'd speak for about 90% of the population that "Alien" is one of the best ever.
