Of course, things go wrong and the Aliens have plans of their own - like taking over. Then it is up to Ripley - now with mixed emotions, being somewhat Alien herself - to deal with the situation. The plot has been summarised as ''a rag-tag team of misfits use their eccentric abilities to save their own skins and the world''.
Expect lots of Aliens - teeth and all - and lots of gory goo.
