  • ⚠️ WARNING: LOTS OF DISGUSTING SHIZ, ALIENS COMING OUT OF BELLIES, LITERALLY MADE ME PHYSICALLY ILL BUT IT WAS STILL REALLY GOOD
    HAPPY REACTOBER! 🎃 👻 👽 Throughout the month of October, I'll be culturing myself and taking on as many horror film reactions as I can! Welcome to our first installment, where we watched PROMETHEUS (Sci-Fi Horror....and boy oh boy was that some of the most horrific shiz I've ever seen)
    Why oh why did I let y'all talk me into this one.....maybe shouldn't have done this at 10:00 on a Monday morning 😆
    As epic of a sci-fi film as this is, I was NOT properly braced for the gore in store 😷 literally almost didn't even make it through THAT scene 😂 I was really contemplating quitting midway through because it had my stomach CHURNING, but I'm glad we stuck with it! MAYBE I'll watch the next one, but I definitely need to recalibrate after this lol
    Stay tuned for many more scares in store! 🖤 🧡

    Thank you for the reaction!!! There is a version of this script where the Engineer speaks to David that the Engineers were cast out of a world called "Paradise" which is a reference to Lucifer's exile from Heaven in the John Milton's Paradise Lost. Even the beginning of the film is a reference to the Messianic sacrifice; a being is sent from above and sacrifices himself and his blood mixes with the water to create new life (Humans). In many religious texts blood is used as a substitution for water, and water is used as a substitution for blood. Additionally, many Messianic characters refer to themselves and their blood as the Water of Life. So through sacrifice, new life is created. This whole movie intertwines religious themes SO FREAKING WELL.

That's when David decided to dip his finger in the drink. There's a detached, machine-like logic to it. David is not about holding a grudge, he is indifferent to human life. He is purely driven by his scientific curiosity. IMHO.

    Basically the 10ft ripped alien drank the black goop. The goop deconstructed him down to the cellular level. It mixed with earth cells and elements. He seeded life on earth or humans anyways. He was like the sacrifice to seed humanity. That “alien navigator” is the same giant navigator you see in the alien ship in “Alien”. You get to see the back story in this prequel. When the trailers came out for this movie I had no idea it was tied to the alien franchise until I saw the navigator scene. Being a fan I was blown away by the surprise and delighted. Shaw is going to where they come from bc she wants revenge.

    Don't listen to the nay-sayers. you should watch "Alien 3" and "Alien Resurrection"...to be honest, the third one falls short of a great sequel but it's still very enjoyable...AND the 4th one is awesome. IMO You should watch them and make your OWN opinion of them.

    • @rastarn
      @rastarn 17 днів тому +1

      Absolutely! In of itself, both are really well done. Great production value, loads of action. Much like with Prometheus, fans of Aliens didn't like that it was a more cerebral movie idea, rather than action, bug hunt, or similarly, what happened story wise at the beginning of Alien 3. They're all superb movies, with Aliens, in the end, being the most different thematically.

      Alien 3 just needlessly undoes Ripley's legacy for a cheap shock Nothing about it is elevated. The director has since distanced himself from the film, confessing the studio subverted his vision for it. I don't think his vision was that worthwhile in the first place, focusing on all the wrong things. It's not that it's particularly horrible: it's that, at best, it's an ordinary, bubble-gum sci-fi/horror. Personally, I somewhat enjoy those if I'm bored and it's streaming somewhere for free. At worst, though, it sets the franchise on the wrong trajectory from inferior visions of the saga and is arguably even a bit misogynistic in its failure to realize Ripley as a character. It's definitely nothing special. But reasonable minds can differ. NOTE: I took care not to mention any actual spoilers in this.

      Personally i dont listen to what people have to say. I often hate movies everyone else likes and love movies others dislike. The art of media is subjective in nature. No two people in the entire world like all the same content. The odds would far exceed that of the lottery.
      That being said, even though i disagree with the direction of prometheus and alien covenant, they are still well made movies.
      Alien Romulus however, was a terrible movie and one i would never watch again. 😵‍💫🤢🤮

    Ridley Scott considered Prometheus an 'indirect prequel' (paraphrasing), and I've always considered this and Covenant more like "What If?" stories about the xenopmorph's origin. They're interesting (and as you saw, gross) in their own right and worth watching. Likewise, Alien Resurrection is more like a "What If?" future of the franchise, and similarly grotesque but worth watching. Not Oscar worthy, mind you... but watch worthy. Thanks and enjoy!

      @@CatherineLaSalle I saw Covenant a long time ago, and I barely remember it (probably need to rewatch it). Based on Prometheus the vibe I got was that the black goo was a bio weapon that leads to Xenomorph creation and is used by Engineers to wipe out planets. So I kind of figured they had used this stuff elsewhere and the Xenomorphs arose independently on different worlds (though I don’t know how lore accurate that may be).

    Before you watch Alien Covenant, I highly recommend reacting to the two prologues that were released on youtube before the movie came out. “The Crossing” and “Last Supper”. They feel like they should have been in the film and give some good context and set the stage for what you’ll see.

    I think most of their on location filming was in Iceland? But I'm not sure on that?
    Prometheus is an alright film - some BIG canon contradictions when put into context with the original ALIEN films, some issues with certain character development and arcs; basically, many of them made and even died from mistakes that you would not expect real scientists to risk - Holloway, and the biologist and geologist are case and point. And a few other things that don't make sense in a science and tech points - ie the med pod not recognizing female anatomy, when you have female crew members on board.
    The few creature designs and effects we got were very good! I liked the Deacon's final surprise emergence at the end! When Elizabeth had her "C-Section, for a 'MAN'", I really felt the urge to day, "Congratulations, it's a squid!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
    I really, really wish that the Engineers were a little less humanoid, and really embraced much more of something rather "Alien" compared to us in biology, technology and their actual appearance, like the original Space Jockey! They really could/should have embraced much more of the "other worldly", "cosmic horror", and "the unknown" themes originally present with the long fossilized Space Jockey in the concept of the Engineers, but by making them muscled out humanoids near genetically identical to humans really took a LOT of that away from them.

      @@CatherineLaSalle I've seen a LOT of various concept illustrations and paintings over the years of various artists' interpretations of a living Space Jockey. Some were kind of "boring", some were more interesting, and some were very, very eerie and creepy to look at!
      And something I had speculated at about a potential plot point for Prometheus (before the film premiered), was "what if" the Space Jockey/Engineer race had long gone extinct for some unknown reason? And what if the "goo" in the pods were left behind to potentially infect other lifeforms with something analogous to a biomechanical retrovirus? That would then breakdown the host's physical body over time and mutate it into a new/reincarnated (very "alien"/nonhumanoid looking) Space Jockey, with the working knowledge of their race's history and technology, who would then try to infect other worlds/species to resurrect the Space Jockey race!
      At least that's what I had speculated, until seeing the film when it premiered.
      I would have been pretty excited for a plot like that! And it would have been something new, horrifying and "alien" for the saga!

    @chrisbergsten1429 18 днів тому

    Honestly, I never understood this movie.
    Like, I appreciate when a movie treats its viewers as intelligent and doesn't hold their hands and spoonfeed them all the answers. But I feel like there was some important information that got left out... like, why did the guy at the beginning melt himself? (We'll overlook how you can't get a human by just dumping a bunch of DNA or cells on the ground.) And why was David's entire motivation apparently to infect people with mutated aliens? What even was that black oil stuff and how did it all get there? Where did that original monster tentacle thing that apparently grew out of the ground come from? And how did the wild series of tentacle-monster-related events that took place in the movie _just happen_ to create what is, I assume, the first xenomorph?
    I guess a sense of inscrutable mystery was what Ridley and the writers were going for. But while things being unexplained is totally realistic, it doesn't make for a satisfactory narrative. Watching Prometheus is like listening to a small child tell a story that he's making up on the spot; things just happen, none of it makes much sense, and it kinda goes nowhere.
    The caesarean scene was amazing, though. Body horror meets medical horror meets squicky monster horror. A+++

    Also I have a love hate relationship with the horror genre. The hate part is that I feel too much films of the horror genre are just cheap shock value movies. Most of which are either just a contest between how much blood and severed body parts they can throw at the screen (see Terrifier as a good example) or is just some writer/director getting his perverted fantasies onscreen.
    The love part however is that I love the horror science fiction and horror parody subgenres though. The horror science fiction tends to actually have more creativity to it that I can enjoy. While the horror parody, especially the more recent ones, actually takes a generally good stories and just put a horror twist on it.

    If you're preparing yourself for Alien Romulus, I say you just have to watch Alien, Aliens 2, then this movie to understand Alien Romulus. Alien Romulus finally feels like the true sequel the Alien Franchise has been waiting for and the two main actors, Cailee Spaeny and the guy who plays Andy, are great. Don't want to say more, but felt like the movie deserves a sequel with them.
    Also if you're planning to watch more horror movies, I say after this one, no need for anymore Alien movies until you can get a hold of Alien Romulus unless you're really invested in the movies now. Instead I say jump over to the Predator franchise and watch the first two movies. The 3rd one with Adrien Brody isn't bad either, but might feel a bit like a rehash. Also if you haven't, watch the first Terminator movie if you're looking for more horror centric movies.
