Analyzing the Horror, Story Flaws, and Franchise Logic in AVPR: Requiem
Discover why the Aliens vs Predator: Requiem reaction focused heavily on the overwhelming body count and the film's narrative choice to use extreme shock value over focused storytelling.
Short Summary
- Hosts immediately voice strong visceral aversion to the Xenomorphs and their associated grotesque biological tropes.
- The conversation critiques the film for prioritizing shock factor (killing children/pregnant characters) over developing strong human character arcs.
- Reviewers agree the sprawling human subplots felt like distracting, unnecessary "D plot" fluff that detracted from the main Predator vs. Alien conflict.
- Panelists conclude that simpler, more enclosed settings work narratively better for this crossover franchise than modern, sprawling towns.
The panel reacts to Aliens vs Predator: Requiem, noting its immediate, intense brutality right from the start. The primary takeaway is that the film sacrificed coherent storytelling—especially regarding the human characters—to shock the audience with graphic violence. Viewers overwhelmingly expressed a strong desire to focus solely on the established, focused conflict between the two alien species.

Ashley is making Kristen look normal with all this hysteria 🤣
In the expanded lore, Predators see an alien predator hybrid as an offensive creature or abomination that needs to be destroyed at all costs.
This 'lone wolf' predator deserved so much more movies in my opinion. Imagine being so badass that the Predators send one specialist to clean up a colossal mess.
This Predator was basically an alien quarantine unit. An absolute badass
(At 5:40) Wolf is elite and veteran Yautja, who specializes in dangerous "cleanup" missions to eliminate Xenomorphs and cover up evidence of the Predators' activities. The mask he picked is similar to what the City Hunter wore on _Predator 2._
the "The government doesnt lie to people" line got such a huge laugh in the audience at the theater i saw this movie at. People were literally roaring lmao.
The Hospital Scene is gonna f*ck ya'll up.
47:47 "the government doesn't lie to people." Me:😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
There was a pregnant woman in Predator 2 who was spared because it went against their code. The Xenomorphs in this film, however, have no such restraint.
Alien: in space no one can't hear you scream! AvP requiem: on earth you can't see shit at night!!!!
