First designed by H. R. Giger in 1979, the menacing star of Alien was a unique xenomorphic being. One adult alien was able to single-handedly eliminate the crew of the Nostromo, who had the unfortunate distinction of discovering the species on a seemingly abandoned planet. Only one of the crew survived, Ellen Ripley, & she alone returned to civilization, although the journey took years.
In that time, a small human colony settled on the alien planet & was lost. Ripley is asked to return to the planet, along with a force of Colonial Marines, to investigate. What they discover is beyond their worst fears
- an entire brood of the alien species has control of the colonial structure. The marines face a horde of alien warriors & one very nasty queen.
