Late last year, Fox put out the Alien Anthology Blu-Ray set. The price tag was hefty, especially if you didn’t like the last two films. While you can purchase these individually for $15, you can get this nice box set – which I believe has extras not found on the individual releases – for $53! Click beyond the break for the full details & where to buy it.

Finally, one of the box-sets we’ve all been waiting for! The Alien franchise is one of those series that’s perfect for Blu-Ray. It is a benchmark for the format and you can check out our full review of The Alien Anthology below.
Alien:
How much can one say about the timeless classic sci-fi horror film that hasn’t been said before? Well, very little. This is still Ridley Scott‘s finest film to date and it hasn’t aged a bit. Every beat of tension still lands with a punch, the alien is still one of the best ever to be put on-screen, and it’s atmosphere stays eerie and unsettling throughout.
Alien is the king of the monster movies. Very few horror films can achieve the level of investment Scott and co. did with making you actually care for the ensemble, even outside of Ripley. What...

Sometimes a press release is so packed with info that it makes more sense just to publish the darn thing as is. Plus do you really need to read this to just go ahead and Buy Whatever Version of this is going to end up on the shelf.
Needless to say this will be one of the most important, if not the most important Bluray releases of this year.

I get pretty excited about Blu-ray releases of my favorite movies at the best of times, but very few make me want to wish away those precious days of my life leading up to the release date. Notice of one such release landed in my Inbox recently while I was away on vacation. Even at the risk of publishing old news, though, I have to shout about this one. The Alien franchise is coming to Blu-ray!
Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment has officially announced that it will release the 'Alien Anthology' on Blu-ray on October 25. That's a whole, err, far too many days away. It sounds like it will be well worth the wait, though.
The set will include all four of the films in the pre-Alien(s) v Predator series and there will be two versions of each film. There is also a fifth disc titled 'Making the Anthology,...

The official announcement of the Alien movies on Blu-ray arrives, with full details of the extra features right here...
Stop everything! Fox has just formally announced the six disc Alien Anthology, a vast collection which includes two versions of all four Alien features (Alien, Aliens, Alien 3 and Alien Resurrection), and huge quantities of previously unseen extras, ranging from an unreleased version of Wreckage And Rage: The Making Of Alien 3 to pre-production test footage.
Tying the 60 hours’ worth of features together is a Mu-th-ur mode, which provides an index to all the content spread over the discs. And for those with the extra cash, the collection also comes in a limited edition, which also comes with The Guardian, a glowing egg statue.
