One of the cinemas all-time classic movies, Ridley Scott's Oscar-winning deep space horror Alien. Any paper for this film is extremely sought after with the alien 'egg' style, designed by creative arts agency Bemis Balkind the most recognisable. Alien was re-released on Halloween 2003 in a remastered director's cut format. Sensibly, the studio went with the original 1979 poster design. However, they updated it by printing a small number of posters on heavy stock paper with a silver background and luminous green plastic panel (on reverse) offsetting a die-cut 'bleeding' edge to represent the Alien blood. The effect of the luminous plastic when the poster is in a lightbox is stunning.
