Alien: Covenant - Prologue: Phobos
2017·10m·★ 6.8
A darkly twisted psychological drama, ‘Phobos’ is a short film set before the events of ‘Alien: Covenant’. The film follows the crew of the ill-fated colony ship Covenant, on what amounts to a highly unorthodox job ‘interview’ for their upcoming mission, masterminded by their employer, the Weyland Yutani Corporation.
