History Film / AliensVsPredatorRequiem

* DownerEnding: By the end the of the film, every character except for Dallas, Kelly, Ricky and Molly are dead, the Xenomorph infestation has resulted in an entire town being nuked off the map with only the aforementioned four surviving (out of a town of over ''5,000'' people,) and the ultimate fates of said four aren't looking too good considering what the military just did, and also, Wolf's plasma weapon ends up in the hands of the US Government.

* BloodierAndGorier: The first film isn't exactly blood-free, but ''Requiem'' really cranks up the {{Gorn}}, even more so in the uncut version

* DeathOfAChild: Gleefully applied by the filmmakers, as the Predalien and xenomorphs kill kids and [[BlackComedy even eat babies]]. However, [[GoryDiscretionShot most of it actually happens offscreen]], with only one child falling victim to a facehugger and dying on-screen; though the babies' deaths were onscreen, they were in their mother's womb at the time.

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Wolf kills several humans that get in his way throughout the course of the film, but his ultimate objective is to prevent the Xenomorph infestation from spreading beyond the town and eventually overwhelming the entire planet. Whether this is for any noble reason or simply because one of the Yautja's favored hunting grounds are under threat is never made clear.
** [[spoiler: Colonel Stevens doesn't even bother trying to evacuate anyone. Instead, he lies and tells the survivors to head to the center of town for a nonexistent airlift, possibly to lure as many Xenomorphs there as possible, and then drops a tactical nuke on their heads that wipes out everyone and everything in the area. Sure, this may seem like a dick move, but his overall intention is to ensure that the infestation is contained and that no aliens manage to survive the bombing. His attitude immediately before the nuke is dropped shows that he really isn't happy about what he's been forced to do.]]

* DoomedTacticalTeam: The Colorado National Guard platoon upon arriving in Gunnison, gets slaughtered by the Xenomorphs in a ShoutOut to the scene where the Marines got ambushed in ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.

* BlindObedience: ''"The government doesn't ie to people!"''

* DeathBySex: [[spoiler:DoubleSubverted.]] Jesse strips down to almost nothing in the pool scene before making out with Ricky. [[spoiler:While she doesn't die to the xenomorphs in the following attack scene, she is inadvertently bisected by Wolf a short while later at the hospital]].

* BlindObedience: ''"The government wouldn't lie to us!"''

* GenreBlind: "The government wouldn't lie to us!". Anyone who has seen any ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'' or ''Franchise/{{Predator}}'' film ever can tell you just how horribly wrong that is.
