DESCRIPTION

The ultimate in alien terror! Members of a scientific research outpost in Antarctica find themselves battling a parasitic alien organism capable of perfectly imitating its victims. They soon discover that this task will be harder than they thought, as they don’t know which members of the team have already been assimilated and their paranoia threatens to tear them apart.

Featuring work from an amazing team of filmmakers including: composer Ennio Morricone (The Good, The Bad and The Ugly), cinematographer Dean Cundey (Jurassic Park), special fx makeup designer Rob Bottin (The Howling), and director John Carpenter (Halloween)!

Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
