Caress your Newborn and take a deep breath because we're discussing Jean-Pierre Jeunet's divisive franchise entry Alien Resurrection (1997).

Join us as we attempt to offer a reappraisal of this weird little film, which certainly has its flaws but also has so much going for it. Be it Sigourney Weaver's magnetic performance as Ripley 8 (you'll hear no "not my Ripley" cries from us) or the ooey gooey practical effects, we still like this one!

Plus: Xenomorph nail polish, breathalyzer door locks, that underwater sequence, a monologuing Brad Dourif and the hazards of regularly eating lemon slices.
