It’s
time
to
dust
off
your
VCR
and
clean
the
heads,
because
Alien:
Romulus
is
coming
to
VHS
as
a
limited
edition
on
December
3rd
alongside
the
other
physical
releases,
director
Fede
Alvarez
announced
during
“a
special
Beyond
Fest-partnered
screening”
in
Los
Angeles
yesterday.
The
“fully
functioning
VHS
tape”
is
meant
to
celebrate
45
years
since
the
Alien
franchise
first
(chest)
burst
into
theaters,
20th
Century
Studios
wrote
in
a
release
emailed
to
The
Verge.
It’ll
present
the
movie,
appropriately,
in
a
4:3
aspect
ratio
(hopefully
without
pan-and-scan).
It
also
comes
in
a
slick,
vintage-style
sleeve.

The
art
for
the
box
comes
from
Matt
Furgeson,
whose
other
work
you
can
see
on
his
website.
He
posted
a
wider
version
of
the
same
image
as
a
poster,
which
I
now
desperately
want
on
my
wall,
a
few
weeks
ago.
I’ve
embedded
that
below
for
your
viewing
pleasure.
20th
Century
Studios
hasn’t
said
how
many
copies
of
the
tape
will
be
available,
nor
has
it
provided
pricing
for
the
collectible.
If
you
don’t
want
to
wait
for
the
VHS
or
the
other
physical
releases,
though,
you
can
already
buy
a
digital
license
for
Alien:
Romulus
on
a
streaming
storefront
near
you.
