Risen (2021) is a gripping sci-fi thriller that begins with a cataclysmic event — a meteor crashes into Earth near a small town in Montana, unleashing a mysterious and deadly toxin into the atmosphere. At first, it seems like a natural disaster, but scientists quickly realize something far more terrifying: the meteor wasn’t a rock, but a vessel — and it brought something with it.

Enter Lauren Stone, a brilliant but emotionally guarded astrobiologist called in by the government to investigate the incident. As she examines the crash site and studies the strange behavior of those exposed to the toxin, she uncovers signs of an alien organism adapting rapidly to Earth’s environment. People in the area begin to exhibit disturbing symptoms — memory loss, strange visions, and violent behavior — as the infection spreads like a silent invasion.

While authorities scramble to contain the outbreak and cover up the incident, Lauren finds herself in a race against time. Her research leads her to a horrifying truth: the alien presence is not only intelligent but evolving — and it may already be too late to stop it. Faced with bureaucratic resistance and her own personal trauma, Lauren must risk everything to uncover the truth and warn humanity before the infection becomes irreversible.

Tense, atmospheric, and full of slow-burning dread, Risen explores the terrifying idea of first contact not through grand gestures or alien ships, but through silence, infection, and fear. As the line between science and survival blurs, the fate of humanity may rest in the hands of one woman who’s already lost everything.
