First designed by H. R.
Giger in 1979, the menacing star of the Alien series is a unique
xenomorphic being. Since the species was reawakened by the crew
of the Nostromo Spacecraft, the encounter's sole survivor, Ellen
Ripley, has battled to keep humanity safe from alien
destruction, only to give her life for the cause. In Alien:
Resurrection, set 200 years after her original untimely death,
the company uses cloning methods to resurrect Ripley, complete
with the Queen Alien embryo incubated inside her. Scientists
extract the alien and begin breeding the species on board a
spacecraft headed for Earth. Once again, Ripley must fight
against the company of scientists to destroy the infested ship
before the alien species reaches Earth.
