Alien: Ore | Written & Directed by the Spear Sisters | ALIEN ANTHOLOGY 

I appreciate the use of 1980's style tech in the scenes rather than updating. Gives it a gritty-retro-realistic look.

The dog was the best actor ; it genuinely looked intrigued with what it seeing on the monitor.

This was fantastic. It had a great "Ripley" moment, with a subtle twist of its own. Heroes stand up and people band together to make a difference. It's people who get stuff done, not companies. This is a point I'm sure the Spear sisters understand considering the small film production crew they surely had.

I’m so happy to know that there are people, a dedicated community willing to go out there and film this. I loved this. Classy and true to the originals. 👍

Some of these shorts are better than some of the big budget movies

The best alien short I’ve seen. Seriously the faith behind the original, the execution and acting was amazing.

I like how it stays so true to the original. CRT monitor for props. Custom graphics for what's displayed. A lot of work went into this getting the details just so.

As a long time Aliens fan, you guys nailed it.

I absolutely LOVE the looks on their faces when they're about to face this thing.

Tip of the grimy safety helmet to the team that made this. I've watched it a few times now and am truly impressed by the love and attention to detail that went into this. You really captured to tone and feel beautifully, the writing is tight, and I thought the actors really brought it. Kudos to you all.

Congratulations!! This is an amazing example of how the series should be. The 80s retro aesthetic, the company-workers conflict, the strong (but not forced) female characters, the blue-collar taking care of the situation, good actors and characters not being stupid and facing the treat together. I hope you get the funding to make more Alien stuff!! :D

I never knew this short films existed until today. I've seen a few now, and this one is my favourite. The grandmother is great. I was surprised the others showed up behind her.

There has been quite a few fan fiction Alien films. This is one of the best I've seen. Well done guys from a fan who saw the original when it first came out in the cinemas.

Love the shot transition at 0:20 where the planet's surface becomes the wall.

Weyland-Yutani never changes. Great job.

Why can't Hollywood movies be like this. This short film was more entertaining than most full length movies

This is so well done. Hollywood needs to wake up.

That was actually good. It kept the idea of how the Franchise is. Love how it cuts to Black when the Xenomorph attacks.

Ore is sublime. A fervent ALIEN fan since screening the original in-theater during 1979 & partaking of every iteration across all mediums since, Ore strikes me as an absolutely stunning and intensely authentic ALIEN short, ideal in every way: concept, production, acting, ST, minimal Xenomorph screen-time, retro-ambiance, editing &, well, everything! Thank you Kailey & Sam Spear!

Great film. Told you everything you needed to know about the main character in 5 min. Caring but assertive. Hollywood if she could.

They should really make this concept into a full movie!

jesus 5 years ago.....

No Xenomorphs where harmed during the realization of this film.

The retro future, gritty, practical effects in these shorts and the alien films and blade runner too is just the coolest vibe for scifi

This was nicely done with the feel of the original, 45 years ago! Can't believe it's been 45 years . . . WOW!

The best "Alien" movies/short films combine the dangers of greed and fear of the unknown. This is one of them.

Woooowww I'm 41 years old... I like so much Aliens Movie... hugs this fan ...here Brazil 🙋🇧🇷😊🤝

This one was the best because of the use of the W corps mission to secure one of these xenomorphs alive and captive. That was great use of the colonies and their possible sub stories while encountering the xenomorph species in the midst of trying to make a honest days pay. W corp is always the silent elephant in the room...great take on the stories possible branches and sub stories

excellant short film

Dude! Top notch! I wish this was a full 2 hour movie I would pay to see it in theaters. This is awesome. The actors were spot on and the details were perfect. This is honestly fantastic, I would love to see more.

It's sad that fan projects show more love and care for the originals than hundred million dollar Hollywood productions.

I would like to see this developed into a feature length movie.

I just found these and OMG!! Amazing!! Why won’t Hollywood see this and get behind one!

That first transition from planet to wall I didn't even notice, great idea!

In space no one can hear you scream. On a mining colony, only the emptiness of the mines can hear the sole survivor of a Xeno infestation scream. How terrifying this particular type of storytelling is. Kudos to the team who flawlessly put this together. Short fan based films seem to have the lore, horror, gore and special effects down pac to the tiniest detail, sometimes even surpassing what Hollywood can create. Very excellently done! I am patiently awaiting the arrival of Alien Romulus, hoping it lives up to the standards of its predecessors which this short is clearly indicative of.

That was incredible 👏🏻 So many callbacks to Alien/Aliens, excellent work.

I think they should start a Netflix series

That short had me hooked. I remember going to see the original when it first came out as a small child. I'd pay to see a full length version of this idea. Def an original idea and plot. 2 thumbs up! This is prob my 20th time rewatching it

This was so well done- beats ALOT of the current “crap” coming out of Hollywoodland. This would be a great series on Shudder. Come on Shudder pick this up!

What I really loveis the ending, where all these workers are standing their ground and preparing to face xenomorph head on. No running around in terror, no desperate plea to save them. Nope! Their expression screams: Come at us, bro!

Take notes Hollywood. Now, this is how you do a good Alien short film anthology!!

They need to make this into a full length Movie

Nice touch adding the chains in the work room; their clanking brought me back to the original and Brett's death scene.

This actually terrified me just like Alien did. Loved it!

Seeing the miner with the Aspen Beer t-shirt was a thoughtful touch.

They were brave at the end. My hat's off to them. Superb short film.

Man, I hate typos. This is fantastic!! I've been waiting for years for this kind of quality Alien short. Thank you Spear Sisters, you rock!

Been a fan of Alien since I saw it in a theater back in 1979....this was fantastic....I love seeing new scenarios and new characters take on the challenge...

The little dog was the best actor in it. Not that the others were bad but the dog seemed to respond to what was happening.

This is easily one of the best of these shorts.

This short film was very well done. Cinema quality. The acting portrayals were great as well as the suspenseful ambience of the fictional environment in which the movie takes place.👍

Best one yet. I like to think they got in trouble for killing it, but they saved the colony. They arrived to the top on the elevator with acid burns and a portion of a blown-off limb. One of these have to be a success story.

This is the kind of stuff that could make it to a Hulu series!!

Great job! The whole colony story before Aliens needs to be done like this.

That was enjoyable. We need a full length movie that’s this good.

That quiet jump scare, that was good. I miss that.

Ya ima geologist and have worked in mines. This is pretty accurate. Also well written characters. Good job. Best alien short I’ve seen. And most are pretty good. Don’t think platinum is mined underground though. Oh, it’s an alien planet maybe geology is quite different there. Anyway great short.

Great everyone who was apart of this🤝

The Alien shorts are great! "Betrayal" always a running theme in this franchise! The company and the "alien species" are always top priority!

PLEASE make this into a full length movie!!!!

I definitely loved this one more than containment! Everything in this short went right from the casting all the way to the post production team. The VFX were flawless, the visual story telling was impeccable! I would rate this one a 9/10. Its missing the last point because it wasn't long enough lol.

Great short film! I saw the original movie back when I was about 4 or 5 years old. Gave me night mares for years. But it also gave me a love of this genre of films and stories.

Definitely a well-made short film! Acing was decent, sets and costumes were great, and the lighting was genuinely creepy. And one thing that was nailed was mostly how you showed the alien itself. It was always in shadows and most of what we saw was fleeting moments, like when they were running away and one person tried to fight it with an axe. I do like how you showed the alien being hurt without having to light the thing; just a shriek, someone saying "I got it", and then the fallen axe with the melted blade. Excellent use of showing just enough. One problem I have with these modern Alien films is that it seems like the film makers just want to put the xenomorphs front and center in full lighting and no subtlety. Like "Hey guys! Look at the alien! Remember the alien! You all like the alien, right?!" Like they think they cannot be scary anymore. That is simply not true, and this film proved it. Now I admit that I wasn't really scared, but it did have me tense and worried. That's where I think an Alien horror film shines and needs to shine; tension for characters we like. Which leads me into the part where I do have some criticisms. One of them being the characters. Now the main lady? She was great and I was definitely with her for her motivation to not let this thing out! Very brave and I was rooting for her. The other characters...well they didn't get time to really develop, which is a shame considering that right at the end, I was all in for a brutal little rumble with the beast! Seriously, the moment that she was standing there facing against the alien and then the rest of her crew came with makeshift weapons of their own...standing shoulder to shoulder against the unknown...that gave me goosebumps and I was excited! But I just blame that on just how short this film is. At a total of 10 minutes including credits...that's not a lot of time for character development while still delivering a satisfying Alien movie. This definitely needed more time, more money, or more something to cook properly into something truly amazing! The other thing I was not fully sold on was the CGI...at least I think that was a CGI alien. It looked a little stiff and unnatural. Now if it wasn't CGI and was indeed a suit, then I apologize. But yeah, that was...not the best in my opinion. But for what it was, it wasn't bad and it didn't take me out of the movie. Just a little nitpick that I'm sure with more time and/or money, could have been polished and done amazing. So yeah...BIG thumbs up to this, with the only real problem I had being just how short it was.

wow, that encapsulates the entire franchise in 10 minutes of brilliant story telling!

Love this one the most. From character to setting to texture of alien eggs, all are very good tribute to the original Alien movies but with very original variations.

A year later, this is recommended....I liked it a lot.

WOW! So impressive, so much subtle attention to detail.

This was amazing! True to the tone and message of the original, while not just serving as a rehash. Also great use of lighting and camera transitions. I would support this team making a full length Alien movie.

I'm happy nothing happened with the dog.

The atmosphere of alien coupled with the tech and action of aliens, very nice hybrid of the two, excellent work good guys! Kudos!

Bravo! Well written & produced, with believable actors.

More genuine characterization here in 10 minutes than the last half dozen Hollywood films combined. Excellent job!

Bravo! Congratulations! Actually a brilliantly made short!

This has been THE SINGLE BEST Alien-movie since ALIENS. Period.

Great production value, editing, lighting, scene, and cinematography. The behind the scenes and support staff really came through.

I love all these Alien shorts! I wish all of them could become movies!

Holy crapazoid! This could so easily be made into a full movie. Lead actress is every bit as convincing as Sigourney! No backstory necessary... Just some miners finding some alien eggs. Mayhem ensues!

It comes to something when a 10 minute short story done on a budget and posted on RU-vid is more entertaining and scary than the multi million dollar films coming out of so called professional studios..... Thoroughly enjoyed it - Well Done all involved.

Best thing to do is to watch all of these short films 2x each before you go to bed for the night. Make sure to unplug your night lights also. That is if you wish to have a really great nightmare. I dare someone to take this challenge.

It’s beyond me how these people aren’t under contract with a substantial budget.

At 0.15-0.25 was a beautiful transition, kudos! Character interactions were well done too, not just an auto-rolodex of premade relationships. Good charcter development. Loved the overall 'we're not gonna let you get away with this shit' attitude from a breed of people that would not have cut and run. And best of all, been an Aliens fan since the original movie. Thank you guys, Loved it and now want to see more. Good Luck on your journey and wish the best success to you.

I watched about half a dozen of these great short's, man you guy's are talented, keep it up, who knows if someone will pick up and make a full movie on this.

This is very like the book into Charybdis. Assuming Hanks is a droid. Love this.

@ALIEN ANTHOLOGY - This short film is awesome! More please and with a longer duration, that really digs into the storyline including the fear factor... I really enjoyed the characters and the overall quality of production, acting and special effects of this little gem!

This is better than the newer alien films

the details and ambiance of this short film is superb...just wow

True to the original colony setup. Really enjoyed this. One of the most original I've seen. The origins of Newt come to mind.

Predator, “If bleeds, it can be killed, but got to avoid its acid type.”

These Alien shorts are absolutely superb and just the sort of thing missing from the Alien franchise - we don't need big budget CGI just fresh ideas and well implemented storylines. The whole premise of the original Alien film is what makes it so good, very little is seen of the Alien and the tension is built up with whats hiding in the darkness being the biggest fear. The directors of these shorts "get it"!

This was a good short film, that being said it's MUCH HARDER to make a full length movie.

Solid characters, great world building, crunchy tension and horror... this is how you make an _Alien_ story.

ooohhh! Such a good short, amazing! IT is in line with everything the first three Alien movies had in common. Excellent acting, I have instant favourites, I wish to see them in a full feature film, with this story extended.

OK this is very good in all aspects of writing, and 80's CGI, as defined below a "gritty" look", you lot are "true fans"

Give those who made this a big budget and let them make the 1st of 3 big killer reboots!

Awesome movie! Very professionally done. Great story, great ending!

This one is really well made. Would love to see this as a full length movie.

I love this one. All of the shorts are good but this is one of the best.

I've been an Alien fan since I first saw the movie in the 70's, this was amazing and could very easily be canon. Much better than the last few Aliens films!!

When I find a sub 11 minute RU-vid video that grabbed my attention more than most stuff available in theatres, I'm much impressed !

damn, i forgot that this was a short film! I had already felt a connection with the main female mine worker and the film just ended!
