Alien short films for the 40th anniversary

This year is the 40th anniversary of Alien, one of my favorite sci-fi/horror movie of all time. I saw it originally when I was way too young, and I am a fan of the series ever since.

*In honor of the 40th anniversary of ALIEN (1979), six visionary filmmakers expand the terrifying imaginations of Ridley Scott, H.R Giger, and Dan O’Bannon. From atmospheric hallways, to hair-raising escapes and deadly creatures lurking in the dark, these captivating stories brings forth a new narrative for fans, while paying homage to the original film.*

Here are the 6 movies. An hour of entertainment and Alien fix, that neither Prometheus or/and Covenant can't provide. Note: There are some things that I like and dislike in the 2 prequel movies, and I don't hate them.

*Four survivors find themselves stranded aboard a small escape pod in deep space. Trying to piece together the details around the outbreak that led to their ship’s destruction, they find themselves unsure to trust whether or not one of them might be infected.*

Alien: Specimen

*It’s the night shift in a colony greenhouse, and Julie, a botanist, does her best to contain suspicious soil samples that have triggered her sensitive lab dog. Despite her best efforts the lab unexpectedly goes into full shutdown and she is trapped inside. Little does she know, an alien specimen has escaped the mysterious cargo, and a game of cat and mouse ensues as the creature searches for a host.*

Near closing time, they are reluctantly allowed inside the colony supply depot where the trucker’s condition worsens, leaving a young supply worker alone to take matters into her own hands.
