Alien Uprising pays homage to the mother of all monster-in-outer-space sci-fi epics, Alien. Directed by Andre Bellware, the story opens with a group of marines sent to suppress a riot at a prison space-colony. When they get there, they find scenes of carnage caused not by rioting prisoners, but by a mutant creature that is still on board the ship -- and it's up to Lt. Louise Dunn (Rebecca Kush) to lead the marines and prison survivors to safety.
