Alien (1979)

When the commercial spaceship “Nostromo” picks up a distress signal, the seven-man crew lands on a nearby planet to investigate. Only when they arrive, these “space truckers” unwittingly invite a murderous lifeform into their ship. The creature quickly evolves into the perfect killing machine and begins hunting down the crewmembers, one by one.
