Nightmare Fuel / Aliens (Steve Perry Trilogy)

• The Aliens are nightmare fuel as always, but Spears leaves one of his own soldiers, who broke his neck due to Bueller messing with Third Base's artificial gravity, behind to be found by the Aliens Spears let loose in the base. The man's alive, but completely paralyzed. Future medical technology could repair the injury, but Spears still coldly leaves him. . . less because he'd slow them down and more because, in Spears' own words, the soldier fucked up and now gets to pay the price (despite noting seconds earlier that going from one gee to one-tenth gee between steps isn't something you can realistically prepare for). To put the icing on this horrifying cake, being captured by the Aliens for cocooning is pretty much the franchise's pinnacle of terror. . . how much worse would it be when you can't move at all?
