Distortions Unlimited walks through the revival of a vintage Alien xenomorph mask originally cast from H.R. Giger's own molds in the 1980s.

The project was carried out in partnership with Fun.com, who held the official Alien license. Creator Ed also reflects on the mask's personal and historical significance to Distortions Unlimited.
