I Prefer the Extended Version

Rating: 10/10 (23 June 2017)

James Cameron improves on the Ridley Scott film. This film is wall to wall action. It really shows how flawed "Alien" is. In fact if you watch these films back to back you will see how BORING the 1979 film is!
In 1991 when this film was released on Laserdisc James Cameron extended the film. There is several minutes that add depth to many characters. James Cameron would later extend "Terminator 2" and "The Abyss".
Get even more chills and thrills in the Special Edition of Aliens, featuring a custom intro from Academy Award-winning Director James Cameron! The terror continues as Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) returns to Earth after drifting through space in hypersleep for 57 years. Although her story about the Alien encounter is met with skepticism, she agrees to accompany a team of high-teach marine's back to LV- 246... and this time it's war!
There has been many more "Alien" films produced since this one and non of them are even 1/2 as good!
