4K Restoration of the Original Theatrical Cut!

In the depths of cold, boundless space, Mother, the state-of-the-art AI super-computer aboard the commercial towing vehicle USCSS Nostromo, detects a possible distress signal from a nearby barren, inhospitable moon Acheron, and awakens the seven-member crew from cryosleep. To investigate the mysterious transmission, three of the crew descend to the dimly lit celestial body known as LV-426, only to discover a downed but relatively intact extraterrestrial spacecraft and its strange cargo. But was this cryptic signal indeed a desperate SOS, or was it a warning? Either way, somehow, something else has found its way into the Nostromo and now, its silent, dark corridors will never be safe again. Who dares to confront the formidable Xenomorph, the unwanted eighth passenger?
