A crew of low-lifes working with an android in a dirty old spaceship for a faceless corporation that treats them as expendable.

Obviously the movie is really scifi horror, but it does hit a lot of cyberpunk themes. So do you consider Alien to be cyberpunk? If you don’t, what would need to change to make it cyberpunk?

I usually include a trailer for the movies I reference but come on, it’s Alien. You already know about this movie.
It’s streaming on Hulu if you haven’t watched it recently.
