Short Movie Synopsis

Decades after surviving the Nostromo incident, Ellen Ripley is sent out to re-establish contact with a terraforming colony but finds herself battling the Alien Queen and her offspring.


Why is this a good horror movie?

Actually not a horror movie, but one of the greatest sequels in movie history. Added a completely new level of fear to the first film. And it’s connection to that first film makes both of them classics.
