Alien/Species (DVD)

This double feature presents two science-fiction classics boasting production design by Swiss surrealist artist H.R. Giger. Starring Sigourney Weaver as warrant officer Ellen Ripley, ALIEN (1979) focuses on the crew of a space cargo ship that finds itself invaded by a brilliantly original fusion of insect, man, and machine. And in SPECIES (1995), a genetically engineered, shapeshifting creature (Natasha Henstridge) with extraterrestrial intelligence adopts the form of a beautiful woman to mate with humans and unleash a brood of offspring that will destroy mankind.
