Aliens vs predator - requiem (2007)

Directors: Colin and Greg Strause
Starring: Reiko Aylesworth, Steven Pasquale and John Ortis
Certificate: 18
Genre: Horror
Awards: None

Alien and Predator are the two biggest selling scifi/horror film franchises. Aliens vs Predator is the second of the spin-off films including these monsters. The film is about both creatures coming to earth and wreaking havoc while trying to kill each other. There is also a hybrid which is part of them both which seems to be fighting on the Aliens side but it's hard  to tell as when there fighting you can't tell which is which.

The film is overall confusing and set in night time so that it's even harder to tell if it is an alien or a predator. The human characters are all trying to run away and survive which reminds me of Pitch Black except they did it better. The films show no mercy to the characters with 8 year old children and pregnant women getting there stomachs blown up.

Overall I was disappointed with this film but maybe the films will never be as good without Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sigourny Weaver.
