Probably the best movie of the entire alien series. It changed the
scene from being set in the infinite depths of outer space, to a
cramped and claustrophobic colony.

The story:
Ellen Ripley's escape pod is found floating in space almost
fifty years after her ship dissappeared. She is brought out of
stasis, and asked to go on a mission to a colony with which
contact has been lost. It is suspected that the species she
encountered might have been taken to the colony. She must
now face her nightmare once again.

Male marine: " Hey Vasquez - have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
Female marine: "No Hicks, have you?"
