About this listen

Unconscious, unaware, Ripley is the last human survivor of the Nostromo, her shuttle lost in deep space. Meanwhile, the crew aboard the mining ship Marion, faces a catastrophic collision with one of its own dropships and has to contend with the alien infestation on board.

Marooned in a decaying orbit above the planetoid LV-178, the crew struggle to tackle the threat at hand, when an unexpected visitor makes her presence known.

Very engrossing production. I enjoyed this expansion of the alien universe, I'm a big fan of radio plays (remember those? BBC's Radio 4 Lord Of The Rings for example) and this is right up my alley. great sound production, by which I mean there's a vivid stereo soundstage, some meaty bass in some of the effects, just really enjoyable on headphones!

Faithful to the original Alien film tone

You can question the story a little here, but the production value, acting and music are all great. You get the real Alien experience.

Nothing radically original but a fantastic Ripley performance by Laurel Lefkow. You wouldn’t believe it wasn’t sigorney! She’s a well written Ripley too. Ancillary characters also good outside of Science Officer Sneddon. Kathryn Drysdale clearly more focused on her Bridgerton script.

I think this is my favourite Aliens Audio drama so far

Laurel Lefkow’s Ripley is brilliant

Great

Somehow Ripleys voice actor sounds more like Sigourney Weaver than the real thing! Absolutely love this series, not to be confused with the Aliens Book by the same name, which has sub par narration in my opinion

Fantastic all round!
