Calob Adams Elementary, my dear Watson. It’s pretty obvious.. 1. The Weyland Scientist said that they had to reestablish containment. Which means that they lost control and now they are back in control. Which means they still have one. Which is the person that is unconscious. The other passenger with the knife was unplanned. 2. Similar to Burke, the Weyland Scientist was attempting to sneak the person into Gateway station or another station after intentionally blowing up the science lab. 3. The Scientist scanned the passenger that was unconscious and didn’t provide an answer. Instead she deflected and said anyone could be infected to take there attention off of him. 4. When the passenger with the knife attempted to attack the unconscious patient, it was at that very moment the chest buster emerged. The timing is suspicious. Was the chest buster protecting the unconscious patient because he had a Queen in him?
@@TheTruthIsGonnaHurt And she must have been already growing, since small xenomorph did not touch the body, even though they are suppose to eat as much as they can, as fast as possible to attain maturity.
Not exactly fan-made in the traditional sense. Fox gave the filmmakers a production budget for this short, so they weren't primarily taking it out of their pockets. Plus Fox had final say on the edits. But yeah, it's not bad at all.
I disagree it started off well but I think if there going to do something like this we could of at least seen the alien not just a quick flash of a tail
@@adamgreensides948 I don't think it was a bad decision, it focused on the characters reactions to seeing the creature for the first time, one being terrified the other in awe (?) 2 of the ways characters have looked at the xeno throughout the fanchise.

Guaranteed that guy at the end putting the mask on said to himself "Oh F this, I'll just pretend I'm still out" and he probably lived the longest because of it.
They can fight to defend themselves, like a cat with its claws out. I'm sure that in such a situation where one person is down on the ground and easy prey, that it will take its chance and feed.

Just shredded through Aliens Colonial Marines and starting Isolation again. I watch each movie at least once a year. We need this franchise back, and back to basics.
The great thing I always liked about the Alien was that you never really knew how intelligent it was. It is a Lovecraftian horror right down to it's motivation. In Alien, it learns the vent system, knows how to avoid the airlock, knows when to leave the ship, and even tries to hide in the lifepod unnoticed. In Aliens, they even cut the lights. And even with they're reproductive nature... You always get the sense that killing other lifeforms is much about sheer, intelligent malice towards any form of sentience, as it is survival. They're not simply animals... They're something intangibly else, something truly Alien to us.
You're totally wrong. Did you see any alien? I saw it in Covenant. A lethal creepy monster. Android, human space ships, alien space ship, Weyland-Yutani stuffs. Any here?
@@illegalquantity using same ingredients you can create a cake pizza or a sandwitch. alien movie feeling is more than just ingredients.... first thing is that main ingredient for main movie was an alien not a robot. second there was almost no open world action second..... for me even alien versus predator( 1 and 2) is more alien movie than prometheus or covenant.
What? They tried to capture it in Alien but by the time they had made a tracking system and hunted and then it found them, it had already grown to full size. Did you not watch the film?
You do realize that it’s one persons opinion at ign, not the organization as a whole. Most people I know at ign love that game. The hype train for hating ign is frustrating
Fragment of the runtime, fragment of the budget, fragment of the movie making experience, and this is still a better movie than Covenant. :D (But right you are, same vibes for me too!)
@@Sznfctm imho this is definitely not better than Covenant (which I think is a solid horror film) but like you said; for the limitations this short had, it was very engaging and fun.
This is perfect! The film makers absolutely nailed the atmosphere, mystery and horror of the original, without being too derivative, really nice work. I kind of feel like that last shot of the ship being pulled in could have been made even better by a big splash of blood covering up the warning message :P
The two shorts that I have seen have been SO. WELL. DONE. --- I can't get over the quality of these works! If this is all we get to see of the ALIEN franchise moving forward, I will be more than satisfied! Kudos to everyone involved!
7:35 to 8:36 This is the very true definition of Alien franchise, all the chaos and despair inside of a star ship, but in the silent space no one can hear you scream.
I find it extremely hard to believe that a newborn xeno is a threat. They're treating it like Covenant's abominations(idr what they're called) that can wipe out a platoon of soldiers.
As a long time Alien fan I really enjoyed this. Very well done especially for a short film. The actors performed brilliantly, I think that if they weren't shackled by a 10 minute time frame they could have had something more interesting. I think an Alien TV show could be a lot of fun to work with. If they had the right people.

Excellent! So very well done!

Top marks from the writing, directing , Production Design ,wardrobe, sound design and FX! Outstanding! work ! So perfect in capturing the truest essence of this world, you guys nailed it! You should all be very proud, cheers to such talented people!
by far the scariest chestburster scene since the original film. It's not supposed to be all about the gore, like the Alien Sequels, it's about the horror of it. And the execution of this was perfect. Great Short Film.
This is the most generic, predictable and cheaply made short so far. This pales in comparison to "Specimen", the latest Alien Anniversary short. You might want to raise your standards as to what "scary" is (by the way, trying to make yourself seem better than someone else's opinion is the essence of being insecure, little guy).
The alien series is one of the scariest horror films considering this could happen. Not with monsters and chestbursters, but with extra terrestrial bacteria

......really. Some turbulence makes her open the door accidentally? Geezus.
Is turbulence even a thing in space?

I dont think the door was latched correctly, and it was the tractor beam or whatever that caused the turbulence
i believe it may have been a tractor beam or when the other ship was beginning their docking sequence that caused the "turbulence".

A 10 minute fan film the same quality as all of Covenant. Well done, the guys did a great job
Not a fan film, distributed by Fox for Aliens 40th anniversary
Dont exaggerate, its far, FAR away from Covenant's quality.
Covenant has Fassbender.
It's a pretty solid short. It heavily takes from Covenant and I'll say that nothing can quite reach the lengths of Ridley's craft.
Very cool. Particularly loved the homage to John Hurt's original hand spasms at 07:15.
This was great. brilliant writing, directing, acting, set design, costumes, soundtrack...ALL OF IT!
I find it extremely hard to believe that a newborn xeno is a threat. They're treating it like Covenant's abominations(idr what they're called) that can wipe out a platoon of soldiers.
It's like being killed by a housecat.
Totaly agree. Fresh born Xeno must run and hide in order to grow. Its less dangerous than facehuger.
As a long time Alien fan I really enjoyed this. Very well done especially for a short film. The actors performed brilliantly, I think that if they weren't shackled by a 10 minute time frame they could have had something more interesting.
I think an Alien TV show could be a lot of fun to work with. If they had the right people.

They should look into some comics, I would really like to see some of those on screen
4/10 didn’t even show the chestburster coming out of that guy’s chest

4/10 to much space.

It’s not like we haven’t seen it before......
Im glad they didn't. They have showen it too much over the years.
Cat and Six Gaming! Right? And it’s been ripped off many many times
4/10 Too suspenseful for a suspenseful short, although I watched at maximum suspensefulness.

IS THIS HOW ALIEN CONTENT STARTED IF IT IS WELL THAT'S AWESOME
Chris Reading did a great job on his short!!!! I’m definitely looking forward to more from him!!!🙌🔥🙌🔥🙌🔥
Please, this guy knows what he's doing, please let him direct the alien series in the right path
There ain't nothing like the chest bursting horror effect of Alien.
I hope all of these short films are included in a future blu-ray release,
When she shouts....Open the door, her accent changed, I liked this short film very much indeed
Excellent! So very well done! I worked on “Nigh Shift”, ( another one of these films) so I know first hand the difficulty in producing and creating something of this magnitude with such a iconic legacy, I must say congratulations to all! Top marks from the writing, directing , Production Design ,wardrobe, sound design and FX! Outstanding! work ! So perfect in capturing the truest essence of this world, you guys nailed it! You should all be very proud, cheers to such talented people!
by far the scariest chestburster scene since the original film. It's not supposed to be all about the gore, like the Alien Sequels, it's about the horror of it. And the execution of this was perfect. Great Short Film.
you didn't see it coming 5 minutes before? Pretty amateur and by the numbers.

Care to elaborate on that little guy?
This is the most generic, predictable and cheaply made short so far. This pales in comparison to "Specimen", the latest Alien Anniversary short. You might want to raise your standards as to what "scary" is (by the way, trying to make yourself seem better than someone else's opinion is the essence of being insecure, little guy).
The alien series is one of the scariest horror films considering this could happen. Not with monsters and chestbursters, but with extra terrestrial bacteria
I'm glad people still care about the classics enough to creat this and the other fan films for the 40th anniversary. Great short film!
1979 Alien come out at theater, went to go see the movie I was 11 years old I remember toys r us had the action figures from the movie those were the wonder years
Need a new Alien movie stat. Im getting Alien fever with these shorts.
Great ! Alien rules the universe 💪
I absolutely loved that. It really captured the themes of the first film. Very immersive!
Man this was so well made had me wishing for more by the end.
