Directed by Ridley Scott. With Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Veronica Cartwright. After a space merchant vessel receives an unknown transmission as a distress call, one of the crew is attacked by a mysterious life form and they soon realize that its life cycle has merely begun.

I’m honestly not sure if I’ve ever watched the director’s cut before, but I think I prefer the theatrical version due to how much they showed the xenomorph and the couple scenes that were later emulated in Aliens. That being said, this is a gorgeous movie in 4k and I suggest it to anyone that enjoyed the original film.
