Summary

On this special episode of The Projection Booth, we're looking at Alien Resurrection, it's the next chapter (some might say last chapter) of the Alien Saga started by Ridley Scott back in 1979. Released in 1997, we re-join Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) five years after Alien 3 but 200 years after the events portrayed in David Fincher's film.

El Goro and Mike Thompson join Mike (White) to discuss the strange hybrid of American Joss Whedon's script and French Jean-Pierre Jeunet's sensibilities.

Interviews include actors Leland Orser and Gary Dourdan, and second unit director & special effects supervisor Pitof.
