The Alien Double Disc Edition DVD contains two hidden Easter eggs, and they’re a little different from most DVD secrets.
Instead of hidden videos or deleted scenes, these Easter eggs unlock data files that expand the world of the film. One explores the Alien’s life cycle, while the other reveals information about the crew of the USCSS Nostromo.
Here’s how to find them.
Easter Egg 1: The Alien Lifecycle
From the main menu:
- Select Extra Features.
- Highlight Main Menu.
- Press Down one more time on your remote.
A hidden hole in the floor will become highlighted. Press Enter.
This unlocks an in-depth analysis of the Alien lifecycle, featuring information about the creature’s development and biology.
Easter Egg 2: USCSS Nostromo Flight Plan
From the main menu:
- Select Scene Selection.
- Press Right on your remote.
- Press Enter.
You’ll be taken to the USCSS Nostromo flight plan, complete with the ship’s crew manifest and additional background information.
