Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem

Release Date: April 15, 2007
Director: Greg Strause, Colin Strause
Starring: Reiko Aylesworth, Steven Pasquale, John Ortiz, Shareeka Epps, Johnny Lewis, Sam Trammell, David Paetkau
Genre: Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi

In single disc rated theatrical, in single disc unrated theatrical, extreme unrated two-disc special edition, and Blu-ray Disc.

Review: For those who found 2004's Aliens vs. Predator too lightweight in the gore-and-guns department, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem offers a marked improvement in both categories, as well as a respectable amount of rumbles between the title extraterrestrials. Set in the 21st century (which predates the story to all of the Alien features), Requiem sends a crippled Predator ship crashing to Earth in a small Colorado town; unbeknownst to the locals, the craft is loaded with H.R. Giger's insectoid monsters, which make quick work of most of the population. As the human cast is slowly whittled to a few hardy (if unmemorable) souls, a Predator warrior also arrives to complicate matters and do battle with the Aliens, as well as a ferocious alien-Predator hybrid (dubbed a Predalien by the sci-fi and horror press). Visual-effects designers and music-video helmers The Strause Brothers (who make their feature directorial debut here) keep the action on frantic throughout...more

Extras: Single discs: Commentary by directors Colin and Greg Strause and producer John Davis, commentary by creature effects designers/creators Tom Woodruff Jr. and Alec Gillis. Extreme unrated adds 10 minutes of never-before-seen gruesome footage; five behind-the-scene featurettes: "Prepare for War: The Making of AVP-R," "Fight to the Finish: The Making of AVP-R," "AVP-R: The Nightmare Returns -- Creating the Aliens," "Crossbreed: The PredAlien" and "Building the Predator Homeworld"; still design galleries.

EN 5 Second Review: It's a Predator and an Aliens movie, of course it is bad, and of course we will be going to see it anyway.

Review by Peter Veugelaers, EntertainmentNutz.com



  Famous American horror writer H.P. Lovecraft said fear of the unknown is the oldest and strongest of the fears and maintained its truth. In Alien and Predator movies the fear wasn’t as politicised as it is here. In AVPR, foreign invaders causes the U.S. military to fight back all the while innocent Americans are dying, symbolically gestured through the mayhem which ensues between alien and predator in which humans are caught in the middle. Go figure. Sounds like what Michael Moore and a list of other anti-military involvement in Iraq filmmakers have been saying since 2003. Fear of the unknown as in American foreign policies? Anti-war movies abound, but in an Alien and Predator franchise? Could we be more subtle? I found this lacked suspense and scares. It works better at suspense in the murder-mystery mode at the start but when the culprits are exposed it’s a full-on gore fest, which isn’t that scary but kind of perverse, which works better in favour of the movie’s anti-war message. A cohesively crafted message it sends but nothing much else.
