Episode 308 - Alien In Review: David Becomes the Creator in Alien: Covenant

from Omega Metroid Podcast · host Omega Metroid

Alien In Review is back to go over the last (for now) movie in the Alien saga left to cover: Ridley Scott's 2017 sequel to Prometheus, Alien: Covenant. We're focusing in on the SFX catching up to the intent of the Xenomorph and how it makes for the best version of the monster yet, how this sequel better balances the horror of Alien with the philosophy of Prometheus, if some of the decisions the characters make in the story are irrational, and analyze Michael Fassbender's captivating performance as both Walter, the new and improved Android model, and David, the complex synthetic from the first movies who's desire to create life at any costs birthed the Xenomorphs as we know them.  Alien In Review will return!
