00:00Welcome to my full movie recap of Alien Romulus.
00:08Alien Romulus begins with Rain, attempting to leave Jackson's star mining colony after fulfilling the necessary service hours.
00:15However, her request is denied.
00:18Together with her brother, android Andy, they are recruited by Tyler and his crew to steal high-grade equipment at an abandoned space station named Renaissance, composed of two modules, Ramus and Romulus.
00:33This equipment is later revealed to be cryo-chambers, which they would use on their way to Vaga 3, and they need Andy to open the space station.
00:43Tyler Bourne and Andy are the first ones to go to the space station, while Kay and Navarro stay on their ship.
00:51There are two main problems for the team.
00:54The space station only has 36 hours left before it hits the rings of the nearby planet, and they are not aware that it is infested with facehuggers and a hive of xenomorphs.
01:05Tyler Bourne and Andy manage to find the cryo-chambers that they are trying to steal, but the energy inside isn't enough to transport them to Vaga.
01:14The trio head to a chamber-like location inside Romulus, and they encounter a horde of facehuggers.
01:19Rain and Navarro try to help, but the latter is caught by a facehugger.
01:23Alien fans will know what happens next to her, sadly.
01:28Bourne leaves Rain, Andy, and Tyler behind to get Navarro back to her ship, where a pregnant Kay waits.
01:37Navarro is then subdued by the alien inside her, and instantly dies.
01:42Navarro's chaotic death prompts the ship to bump into the space station, causing it to change course and accelerate its time of impact to the planetary rings from 36 hours to approximately 47 minutes.
01:55Bourne is then killed by the adult xenomorph for trying to become a hero.
02:01Tyler is the next victim when he sacrifices himself to save Rain and Kay from a rampaging xenomorph.
02:08Rook, a dismantled synthetic and science officer aboard the Renaissance, tells Rain and the others about what happened to his team and his main mission.
02:17In a lengthy exposition, Rook reveals that they are experimenting with xenomorphs to retrieve and develop a black goo named Prometheus-5 to make humans immune to novel diseases, and him even calling it an upgrade for humanity.
02:35As for Rain, Kay, and Andy, they manage to escape the space station unscathed, but the story is far from over for them.
02:43A canister of black goo is taken to the ship by Kay, while Rain and Andy narrowly escape the space station's destruction as it collides with the planetary rings, effectively killing Rook and the rest of the xenomorphs aboard, as the last remaining trio prepares to head to Vaga.
03:00The nightmare is not yet over for them.
03:03Kay, who is already pregnant and has lost a lot of blood after being stabbed by the alien, given that she is so weak and she wants to save the baby, she injects herself with Prometheus goo to try and save her life.
03:16As Kay prepares to go into stasis, she unexpectedly gives birth to a terrifying human and xenomorph hybrid.
03:24The creature looks skinny and pale, resembling a Slenderman-like figure that has xenomorph features.
03:30The hybrid offspring creature wreaks havoc inside the ship, killing Kay instantly and dismantling Andy, who tries to save her.
03:39Rain comes face to face with the offspring creature, and they have a lengthy clash.
03:44She manages to outsmart it by luring it into one of their air ducts, successfully pushing it to space, similar to how Ripley defeated the first xenomorph in Alien.
03:56The movie ends with Rain putting Andy into stasis, with hopes of fixing him in the future, as they head to Vaga.
04:03It also ends my full movie recap of Alien Romulus. Thank you for watching.
