We've teamed up with the UK’s #1 horror and film history podcast, Evolution of Horror, to bring you a special screening of Aliens

After floating in space for 57 years, Lt. Ripley's shuttle is found by a deep space salvage team. Upon arriving at the colony of LV-426, the marines find only one survivor, a nine-year-old girl named Newt. But even these battle-hardened marines with all the latest weaponry are no match for the hundreds of aliens that have invaded the colony.

The legendary sequel to Ridley Scott’s gripping horror, James Cameron explodes a new energy on the screen and secures Sigourney Weaver’s reputation as an action superstar.
