Aliens: Special Edition (1986)

Directed by
James Cameron

This tense, Oscar-winning sequel to 'Alien' takes Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) and a team of marines back to to the planet where she first encountered the grisly alien who destroyed her crew.

Being the only survivor of the Nostromo, Ripley is discovered in deep sleep 57 years after her last encounter with the creatures. Since then she has been adrift in space under suspended animation and has now been found and rescued by a salvage ship.

On her return to Earth she learns that a human colony called "The Company" was founded on the same planet where the aliens were first found.

After contact with the colony is lost, she finds herself being sent back to the planet along with a team of space marines which are bent on destroying the alien menace forever, and saving any survivors - if any remain, of course.
