Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Just before bounty hunter Charile triggers his gun to destroy the last two Critter-eggs, he gets a message that it would be illegal to extinguish the race from the galaxy. He's sent a transporter where he puts the eggs - unfortunately the transporter takes him with it and then gets lost in space. After 53 deep-frozen years, he's found by a private wreckage collector team under the unscrupulous Rick. On behalf of the mighty company Terracor they bring him to an empty space station - but Rick is curious and opens the box... so Charlie has work again, to keep the Critters from eating everybody.

| Goofs | (at around 1h 25 mins) All the Critters from earlier movies have the infamous green-goo instead of red blood, but at the climax of the movie when Ethan kicks the frozen Critter into the wall you can mostly only see red frozen blood parts fall off of the Critter - no green-goo.
