Aliens
1986 · TMDB 8.0
Directed by James Cameron
Ripley, the sole survivor of the Nostromo's deadly encounter with the monstrous Alien, returns to Earth after drifting through space in hypersleep for 57 years. Although her story is initially met with skepticism, she agrees to accompany a team of Colonial Marines back to LV-426.
Why it matters
Cameron transforms the haunted-house-in-space horror of Alien into a visceral war film, with Ripley returning as a battle-hardened survivor.
