Welcome to the eighth and final episode of season 1 of Sequelisers, the show all about fixing bad sequels to good movies. If there’s a good movie that was followed by a terrible sequel, we’re going to try and fix it. This episode is all about where the rot first set in for a franchise that is now plagued with terrible movies, Alien 3. So, what can we do to fix it? Fill it with loads of xenomorph variants? Cast famous actors and kill them off? Unceremoniously kill of Newt AGAIN? All of the above, pretty much. It's Chicken Shit Outfit vs Giger's Nightmare: Street Sharks to decide who wins Season 1! Who do you think had the better pitch? Use #ChickenShitOutfit or #GigersNightmare to let us know! Do you have a good idea for Alien 3? Do you disagree with the decision?
