It doesn’t get much better than this…
Inside the packet for 20th Century FoxsAlien2-Disc Collectors Edition, theres a little fold-out inset.
However, in this introduction, director Ridley Scott throws us an immediate curveball.
Scott even says, flat out, This is for marketing purposes.
Refreshing honesty, but I suppose when youre Ridley Scott you’ve got the option to do that.
The transfer is a beautiful widescreen.
The Nostromo is a gorgeous space-Gothic nightmare.
Gigers xenomorph is a creepy collection of points and angles, all slickly shiny carapace.
Simply put,Alienis a defining movie in the science fiction genre.
This DVD is going to keep me busy for days.
