Alien: Covenant

An unexpected burst of flame urgently awakes a slumbering crew deep in space as their ship briskly travels towards an unknown far distant range.

Upon beginning their repairs, a beacon is detected on a nearby planet, the tantalizing nature of which leads their new captain to decide to investigate, the sage protests of his first mate notwithstanding.

Almost immediately after their arrival, a deadly spore which transmits a misty biological shiver into unsuspecting individuals (the colonization of the colonizers) infects two oblivious crew members, and as the organism gestates within them, their colleagues withstand plied mortal shocks.

Then as night falls and things seem extraordinarily bleak, a lone warrior appears in the wilderness.

Possessing knowledge, courage, agility, sanctuary, and fire power, he gracefully leads them to his haunting abode.

But does he plan to aid or sabotage their escape, and will his startled reflection acquiesce to his cold independence?

Lost and alone on an ancient world.

Intrinsically dependent.

Savagely skewed.

Alien: Covenant introduces acidic tyranny to the age of the superhero by blending the scientific with the biblical to castigate übermensch.

Taking technological insubordination to extremely sadistic levels, it intellectually yet spine-tinglingly reverberates by harrowingly theorizing creation.

Antiquation.

Devastation.

A solidly monstrous addition to the Alienverse, with an ending as cataclysmic as the direst recalcitrant lamentations, Alien: Covenant questions the elevation of artificial intelligence while agnosticating those who play god.

Attaching characteristic struggle to the exhilaration of adventure, it cynically yet resourcefully challenges to temper omniscient existence.

And dreams.
