There's also another chance for you to win a poster for the film autographed by Ridley Scott. The studio will be distributing 20 signed posters to undisclosed theaters in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Boston, Dallas, Washington D.C., Houston, Seattle, Atlanta and Toronto. The first moviegoer to notice one on display and notify the theater manager will have the chance to take the collectible home!

For this digitally remastered special edition of what many have called the "scariest movie ever made," Ridley Scott has incorporated new footage never before seen in movie houses. Working closely with 20th Century Fox, Scott oversaw a restoration of the original film's negative, as well as further digital enhancements. In addition, Scott and his team of archivists went through over 100 boxes of film footage, unseen in almost 25 years, which was discovered in a London vault. From this wealth of material, Scott selected new "Director's Cut" footage, which then underwent digital restoration, matching it to "Alien's" newly-"polished" negative. The film also features a brand-new six-track digital stereo mix.
