Alien (franchise) Alien is a British-American science-fiction horror media franchise centered on the film series depicting Warrant Officer Ellen Ripley (played by Sigourney Weaver) and her battles with an extraterrestrial lifeform, commonly referred to as "the Alien", and depicting android David 8 (portrayed by Michael Fassbender) and his experimentation in creating said lifeform.
The Pod People The Pod People (original title Los nuevos extraterrestres, literally "The New Extraterrestrials") is a 1983 French-Spanish science fiction film directed by Juan Piquer Simón. The film's original draft was meant to be a straightforward horror film about an evil alien on a murderous rampage, but the producers demanded script alterations in order to cash in on the success of Steven Spielberg's "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" by featuring a child and a cute, lovable alien. Director Simón was dissatisfied with the final result. The film was largely forgotten until 1991, when it was lampooned by B movie-mocking cult TV series "Mystery Science Theater 3000".
