They seem to have a day for a lot of films, now: May the 4th is Star Wars Day, October 21st for Back to the Future, August 29th for Terminator (plus Alien, of course). They usually coincide with a key date / reference in the franchise (except Star Wars, which is just a pun). Hope you enjoyed it!

Hi Paul. It's actually based on the "Alien" sci-fi / horror movie by Ridley Scott. The tagline was "In space no-one can hear you scream", so I wanted to have a little fun with that! Thanks for your comments! Regards, John.
