Alien: Resurrection is the fourth movie in the Alien series, preceded by Alien, Aliens & Alien³. Resurrection takes place 200 years after the events of Alien³. Ellen Ripley has been cloned using blood samples from Fiorina 161, on ice so that the United Systems Military can extract the alien queen embryo that was inside her from Alien³. It is not explained exactly how the aliens DNA would have been mixed with Ripleys in order to allow this to take place. After eight tries, the scientists manage to recreate a Ripley with a viable Alien inside of her. Of the former seven tries, all apparent failures, six of them are deceased & are contained in fluid-filled preservative chambers, while the seventh, horribly deformed, remains alive to be discovered & mercifully killed by Ripley later in the film. A new capacity of the aliens is revealed in this film, being their ability to transfer memory genetically. It is this capacity that allows the resurrected Ripley to retain memories of her former self. Posters Of Alien Resurrection
