Storyline:
Following the Antarctic bloodshed in Alien vs. Predator (2004), a crippled Predator spaceship crash-lands in the dense forest of Gunnison, Colorado. But no one can escape from the aggressive Aliens (1986). As a vicious Predalien hybrid and myriads of Stage 1 Face-hugger Xenomorphs scatter in all directions, the Earth becomes a battlefield for two extraterrestrial species fighting for supremacy. With humans caught up in a brutal face-off, it is up to Sheriff Eddie Morales and a handful of inexperienced residents to defend the city. However, motivation alone is not enough–this time, the fate of humankind hangs in the balance.
About Movie:
Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (stylized as AVPR: Aliens vs. Predator – Requiem) is an American science fiction action film and the directorial debut of The Brothers Strause. Starring Steven Pasquale, Reiko Aylesworth, John Ortiz, Johnny Lewis, and Ariel Gade, the movie serves as a direct sequel to Alien vs. Predator (2004). It is the second installment in the Alien vs. Predator franchise, the sixth film in the Alien series, and the fourth in the Predator series.
Picking up immediately after the events of its predecessor, the film follows the aftermath of a Predator ship crashing near Gunnison, Colorado, where an Alien-Predator hybrid, the Predalien, escapes and begins terrorizing a nearby town. A veteran Predator is dispatched to eliminate the hybrid, while the town’s residents struggle to survive the chaos.
Premiering on November 4, 2007, in Los Angeles, and released theatrically on December 25 in the United States, Requiem was widely criticized for its poor lighting, editing, and lack of originality. Despite this, it grossed $130.2 million worldwide on a $40 million budget. Plans for further sequels were eventually abandoned, with independent entries in both the Alien and Predator franchises released in 2010 and 2012.
