j0e1   10 #1 Posted October 10, 2017 2017 marks the 30th Anniversary of the cult sci-fi action classic Predator, to celebrate this we'll be putting it head-to-head in a double-bill screening with another of the most iconic creatures from another world - Alien.  We start in deep space, as we follow the crew of the commercial starship the Nostromo, as they are awakened from cryo-sleep halfway through their journey home upon the discovery of a signal coming from a nearby planet. When they investigate, they find the ruin of a spacecraft, and discover more than anything they could have possibly imagined. Featuring iconic movie heroine Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver), Alien is a landmark sci-fi horror.  Alien original trailer -   We then head earthbound to a mission in the Latin American jungle, as we follow a military rescue unit searching for allies captured by guerrilla forces, who then become hunted by a Predator from another world. With Arnold Schwarzenegger in one of his most iconic roles, the commandos find themselves in a fight to stay alive.  Predator original trailer -   Hosted at the Abbeydale Picture House - Sheffield's Grade II listed 1920's picture palace cinema, always bringing a sense of occasion and along with a fully stocked up bar, this double-bill feature will provide out of this world Saturday evening entertainment...  Following our screenings of Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon, our anniversary celebration of Evil Dead 2, and our sold-out double bill screening of The Thing and Big Trouble In Little China, we hope you'll join us again for our own Alien vs Predator event with an evening of cult sci-fi classics.  Saturday November 11th  £9  6pm - doors open  7pm - Alien  9pm - interval  9:30pm - Predator  Please note that this screening has an 18 certificate - entry to the event will only be for those (including ticket holders) above this age.   Tickets Online: http://sivtickets.com/event/alienpredator   In person: Sheffield City Hall Box Office Monday to Thursday, 9am - 2pm Friday and Saturday, 9am - 5pm  Telephone: 0114 22 33 777 (Monday – Saturday, 9am – 8pm)   facebook event - https://www.facebook.com/events/347516112338866/   _ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
