Our take on Alien: Covenant

Ridley Scott returns to the universe he launched with this 2017 blend of horror and science fiction. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a distant world across the galaxy, sets down on what looks like an untouched paradise, only to find a dark and lethal place waiting for them. Scott pairs dread-soaked atmosphere and grand, forbidding vistas with the franchise's signature terror, leaning as much on unease and existential questions as on outright shocks. It's built for viewers who like their science fiction menacing and their horror slow-tightening, and who don't mind grim outcomes. Newcomers and longtime fans alike can follow it, but the squeamish should be warned.
