“Alien³” (1992)
“Alien³” (1992) is the third installment in the Alien franchise, directed by David Fincher in his feature directorial debut. The film continues the story of Ellen Ripley, played by Sigourney Weaver, as she confronts new horrors in the Alien universe.
After the events of “Aliens” (1986), Ellen Ripley is the sole survivor of a spaceship crash landing on Fiorina “Fury” 161, a remote penal colony. The colony is inhabited by a group of male prisoners, many of whom have converted to a religious order.
Ripley soon discovers that an Alien embryo has stowed away in the wreckage of her escape pod and begins to terrorize the colony. As the Alien starts to kill the inmates, Ripley must confront the new threat while grappling with her own fears and the realization that she might be carrying an Alien embryo herself.
