Aliens (1986) at Glossop Cinema Club

Filled with quotable lines, stunning iconography, terrifying practical effects, relentless alien carnage, and a surprising amount of heart... James Cameron's Aliens is the sequel that nobody thought he could pull off, taking Ridley Scott's claustrophobic horror classic and twisting it into a war movie in space!

Even more incredibly - though less so if you've seen the film - Sigourney Weaver was nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards for her return as Ellen Ripley, delivering a powerhouse performance that helped the film defy the odds and bag a rare acting nod for a sci-fi / action / horror movie!

One of the highest grossing films of 1986, now regarded as a classic of 80s cinema, and cemented James Cameron as one of the greatest directors of all time.

We're screening this masterpiece for its 40th anniversary, so strap on your power loader and join us upstairs at The Globe, Glossop!

Alongside the film there'll be the usual intro, prizes, and short films.

See you at the movies!
