Alien 3

by Stephen Farber

Although I was skeptical about the idea of entrusting the $50 million Alien 3 to an inexperienced first-time director, 28-year-old David Fincher, a refugee from music videos, has done a surprisingly impressive job on his feature debut. Less ambitious than the other two Aliens, it's a tight, gripping, relentless scare show that gets the dirty job done.
