Alien³ The Legacy Cut

At Project A34K, we are dedicated to revitalizing the visual experience of the 1992 science fiction horror classic 'Alien ³', giving it all the post-production attention it always deserved. An underrated gem, it perfectly, and unapologetically closes the trilogy of Ellen Ripley's story (clones don't count), and we’re here to see that it looks its best.

The greatest tragedy of Alien ³ has never been the dark turns the story takes, or even the struggles director David Fincher faced during production, causing him to abandon the picture during editing, but that the film has never been presented in a way that quite does it justice.

We have worked for five years to painstakingly clean up every visual effect, bringing viewers a stunning 4K experience, with a full, professional, shot-by shot color regrade to make every frame bolder and more cinematic, all while preserving the gritty, grainy character of the film.

This new edit "The Legacy Cut" is a mixture of the 1992 cinema version and the "Assembly Cut", which was released in 2003 with the DVD box set "Alien Quadrilogy"

After escaping with Newt and Hicks from the alien planet, Ripley crash lands on Fiorina 161, a prison planet and host to a correctional facility. Unfortunately, although Newt and Hicks do not survive the crash, a more unwelcome visitor does. The prison does not allow weapons of any kind, and with aid being a long time away, the prisoners must simply survive in any way they can.
