Hosted by Andrew Quinn, Darren Mooney and Jess Dunne, this week with special guest Peter McGann, The 250 is a (mostly) weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every second Saturday at 6pm GMT, with the occasional bonus episode between them.
This week, Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant.
The colony ship Covenant is on its way to a new home world when a freak accident knocks the ship off course. However, while conducting repairs, the crew pick up a strange distress call from an alien planet that seems too good to be true. Seeing a potential opportunity, the crew decide to explore this strange new world. There, they find horrors beyond imagining.
At time of recording, it was not ranked on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
