Synopsis
Alien³
After escaping with Newt and Hicks from the alien planet, Ripley crash lands on Fiorina 161, a prison planet and host to a correctional facility. Unfortunately, although Newt and Hicks do not survive the crash, a more unwelcome visitor does. The prison does not allow weapons of any kind, and with aid being a long time away, the prisoners must simply survive in any way they can.
Contamination
A top secret Alaskan lab goes dark due to an unexplained incident, prompting the military to send a black ops team to recover sensitive data and destroy the lab, only to find their ranks infected with a deadly alien virus.
