Alien: resurrection
Impregnated by an extra terrestrial, officer Helen Ripley commits suicide in order to destroy the fetus. Two hundred years later, the nightmare begins again; a group of geneticists bring the young woman back to life by crossing her DNA with that of an alien…
Aboard the Auriga Station, Ripley gives birth to a “son”, which is immediately taken from her, and finds herself prisoner on a vast spatial laboratory, run by the megalomaniac General Perez, and two scientists, Wren and Gediman. Left to her own devices, and considered as little more than a scientific experiment, Officer Ripley attempts to reconnect with her long ago human past and take stock of the physical and mental power that her dual genetic heritage has given her.
Several days after Ripley’s “birth” the Auriga is joined by Betty, a space pirate bringing bounty to Perez that will enrich his Alien menagerie, and Ripley discovers, in the midst of Betty’s team of thugs and mercenaries, a beautiful woman named Call, with whom she quickly makes friends.
