Alien: Covenant (2017)

The sixth instalment in the iconic Alien series sees the returning Ridley Scott in a givning mood: if you want blood, you got it. Just minutes in, the Covenant - an enormous vessel careering through space in search of a habitable planet - has suffered devastating losses. All it takes is one freak power surge and the crew, including Katherine Waterston's Daniels, cowboy-hatted pilot Tennessee (Danny McBride) and creepy synthetic Walter (Michael Fassbender), are down dozens of colonists and a captain (a cameoing James Franco). Pretty soon parasitic soace nasties are exploding out of chests, spines and everythng in between.
