Review Summary
Ellen Ripley arrives at a detention facility. She crash lands and is forced to stay there before the cargo vessel arrives. Eventually, an alien that hid itself aboard her ship escapes and kills prisoners. Now, she must fight to destroy the aliens forever and stop the government from getting them. Matthew Hagenah, Resident Scholar
Lt. Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) is the lone survivor when her crippled spaceship crash lands on Fiorina 161, a bleak wasteland inhabited by former inmates of the planet's maximum security prison. Ripley's fears that an Alien was aboard her craft are confirmed when the mutilated bodies of ex-cons begin to mount. Without weapons or modern technology of any kind, Ripley must lead the men into battle against the terrifying creature. And soon she discovers a horrifying fact about her link with the Alien, a realization that may compel Ripley to try destroying not only the horrific creature, but herself as well. ChiZ, Resident Scholar
