In thiv video, I'll explain the complete Xenomorph life cycle, which can be quite complex and varies under different circumstances. We'll cover every single stage in detail, from the origins of alien eggs to the transformation of Facehuggers into Chestbursters, and their progression into fully grown Xenomorphs. Additionally, we'll delve into the evolution to more advanced stages, such as the Alien Queen, as well as other obscure stages found in comics and video games.
Before the Xenomorphs emerged, Prometheus revealed the sequence of transformations that preceded the original Xenomorph cycle. So to understand the origins of the xenomorph egg, let’s first delve into what came before the egg.
In Prometheus a prequel to the original alien, the black goo serves as a catalyst for a series of horrific transformations that ultimately lead to the birth of a Deacon, a distance xenomoprh ancestor. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
The Man himself is back
Kroft is here! 👽
That should be played over an intercom everytime he walks into a public place.
Three words that made my morning!
@@granpastreetz😂😂😂😂
Anyone knows where Kroft's from?
@@CharlyDavis5594 Good question, but I kinda like not knowing.
A couple issues I have with your points here:
1- I don’t think the life cycle of the creatures/transformations in Prometheus are as quick as it seems. The unfortunate editing choices of the movie undermined the time frame of the main story. It is stated, on the day they arrive to LV-223, that it is Christmas Day. Then, as Shaw and David are leaving the planetoid aboard the alternative Engineer ship, it is stated that’s its New Year’s Day. That means the film takes place over the course of 7 days.
2- it’s impossible for David to have been the one to ultimately create the Xenomorphs that we come across in the original series. All of the aliens we see originate from the engineer ship on LV-426. Not only is David nowhere near LV-426 by the end of Covenant, as David intended to continue on to Origae-6, but the special features of Prometheus(specifically the Weyland files) flat out say that Peter Weyland is aware of the beacon on LV-426. It was thanks to Shaw and Halloway pointing out that system for THEIR hypothesis that he was able to find it and it was one of the primary factors behind him agreeing to fund their mission. So, as stated in Alien, that ship had to of been there a very long time and that particular Engineer was in fact fossilized by the time of the first movie. Which would’ve taken a ridiculous number of years to occur.
Yes but you have to take into account the atmosphere of lv-426 it's different from that of Earth so what may take thousands or millions of years on Earth to fossilize may take only a few years on an alien planet. It's not earth so we can't just pretend like everything's going to fossilize like it does here
@@qvalue9982 unfortunately the logic is flawed either way we look at it because in order for something to BECOME fossilized in the first place it has to be buried under ground. So the Engineer being fossilized doesn’t make sense from an anthropology/geology perspective. But regardless it still takes many thousands(even millions) of years for environmental pressures to fossilize something. If the the environment of LV-426 was so incredibly caustic that it fossilized the engineer in 20 years or less then I can’t imagine even space suits would protect them in Alien.
Thanks for this , the alien franchise is a top 5 science fiction movie project . Many did not “get” Prometheus , I felt it was an utter masterpiece. It was subtle but imbued with such substance. Amazing ❤stuff.
Fans are by definition locked-in and narrow-minded. Every time I hear shit like 'Well I hope Ripley is in the next movie... or at least mentioned cos..cos....' - well, look at anyone under the age of say 30 these days: they're the precise reason that modern movies are shite. Fan service: throw them into the nearest one.
@@louithrottler yup but then they worship dune and Star Wars or marvel sci fi 😂. Spoon fed .
It’s Biblical, read the book of Enoch.
@@loum.4377 I've had enough sci-fi for one day
@@loum.4377 bro what LOL
how is it possible that the first deacon was "born" bursting out of the engeneer, when the engeneers already worhshiped the deacon as seen in the "picture" on the wall? and also how did the squid grow so fast and big even when there was zero nutrition around?! hard to create more tissue from air :D
If I remember right. The engineers used the blood of the deacon on the wall to allow them to reproduce. Therefore they would have part of its genetic material within them already.
Kroft is back. Today is a good day.
Love your videos!!
I hope we get answers to some of the biggest mysteries of the franchise soon.

9:30 - If a face hugger was to try an attack Ron Jeremy…. I’m pretty sure he’d try to f it.
Forget Ron Jeremy. Any drunk frat boy at 2:00am would f*ck it.
Yes. Then the facehugger would be pregnant, and would give birth to a new xenomorph species 🤣
@@GandaMelgao and we would have a Ron g variant….. now thats a horror moofie 😆
You are one of the 2 channels i have the bell activated
Been waiting for a video drop💪🏿💪🏿
Kroft drops a video ....noice
Never jumped on so quick!!!
Honestly, non of the prequels should be canon. Inless David is at the wheel of the first derelict, from the first movie. That's the only tie in.
I still think one of the coolest aspects of a full-grown Alien, particularly the Big Chap (what I consider the definitive Alien design), is the fact that it does indeed possess a human like skull under its dome.. with those creepy, blank eye-sockets visual in production stills.
Kroft explains so well that I fall asleep listening to him. 😊
Happy to see you back been watching u for 5 years now big fan
Hello guys kroft is here.
=favorite youtube opener for sure!
How about the alien that appears on the mural in Prometheus? It precedes all of them in this video. Doesn't it?
Thats a deacon.
@@corymckinnon9588 A deacon? Just like the one appearing from the engineer at the end of the film?
Yes but different. The one at the end of the film is made from the man-made black goo.
It's unknown how the first deacon was made, but they used its blood to give life to planets and create humans on earth. The opening scene of Prometheus.
@@OHHnoYOUdidntMAN That's what I mean. If the deacon on the mural precedes all other, the black goo in Prometheus is a result of something later than the deacon on the the mural.
He has a video on the deacon.
This was a great video! Thank you for making this 😄
Welcome back, Kroft!! 👏 ✌️ Your voice is like the Morgan Freeman voice for science fiction. My favorite is when you say " Engineers ".
Why don't Xenomorphs have eyes? >>>>>> The creatures possess no visible eyes; Giger mandated this in his original design, because he felt that it made the creatures much more frightening if one could not tell they were looking at them.
Great to see new content from you!
Kroft is a PhD in Allien
In which year the Alien vs Predator is? Because the timeline would not match with this. Or is Alien vs Predator alternative timeline? Or Alien vs Predator is happening on difrent Earth in the same universe? Or is Alien vs Predator happening after Alien Saga in which humanidy started all over from the stone age?
AvP and AvPR are usually considered to be sort of its own thing. Where it doesn't conflict with anything else, I think people are reasonably content to accept that it's at least possibly the same universe. Where there is a conflict though, I think lots of people will take other sources over AvP or AvPR
Can't wait to see what Romulus can bring to the franchise!!!
If the black goo came before the egg then why are there pictographs of the alien eggs in the mural? And also the creature in the mural on the ceiling was palming an egg so the black goo did not necessarily come first I think the egg came first and I don't think it's the blood of a deacon
So you finally remembered your password of the account 😅
I love the audio (Atlantis, Audionautix)
Just a random flaw I noticed in the video: the echo location idea for sight. The aliens have to have some type of sight because they notice in Alien 4 when the guy puts his hand over the button @17:26 even though there is a super strong glass window/wall; I'm not sure how you missed this when you have it in your video. Echo location wouldn't work through that window. Somehow they know the guy is on the other side of the glass. Echo location also generally requires sometime of sound produced, so unless their echo location is super high or low on the frequency, you think we'd be hearing it. You could argue against this if you say they have the ability to read minds/sense other creatures close to them and their body movements through mind reading or some other type of sense. Or they have some type of super advanced echo location that goes through different mediums and returns... I think my favorite idea is they have some other type of sensing ability that isn't like one of our 5 sense. This is how the eggs work, how the facehuggers know where the face is vs going for a leg or butt or exhaust vent or hole in the wall.
Fantastic as always.
We're happy you back my bro
PS. Love your theory content.👍
It's a shame that Ridley didn't make a proper sequel to the Engineers saga. Firstly, did he explain why the sleep capsules of the other three Engineers were blown up and why only one of them survived? Why did the last Engineer die before the xenomorph was born? And what happened to this xenomorph, left completely alone on planet LV-223.
Great job instant sub, hope you and all fans of Aliens will support #justiceforhicksandnewt #newtlives #alien5letsrockagain Sigourney Weaver has HEAT on her winning a big actors award this week, she still needs her finale and real sequel to Aliens.
Love your vids. Reminds me of the old Mr.H videos about alien and hellraiser before he switched to more tabloid and antiwoke type content.
This is my headcanon about the life cycle and purpose of the xenomorphs:
I theorize that both Engineers and Space Jockeys exist (LV-426 pilot is not an Engineer).
They are servants of some kind of celestial overseers and take their orders from them.
Engineers plant life on habitable planets, and Space Jockeys destroy it if necessary.
Engineers' assigned planets eventually evolve sentient beings from the life seeds they plant.
When that sentient species reaches a certain point, a judgment is made by the celestials.
A positive judgment allows them to continue to exist; a negative judgment means their doom.
Xenomorphs were created many eons ago by the celestials for use by the Space Jockeys.
They are perfect killing machines, and their entire life cycle has remained unchanged.
This headcanon ignores most of Prometheus and Covenant, but still keeps the Engineers.
Engineers and Space Jockeys are not perfect; they can make mistakes and/or poor choices.
They are also subject to the normal circumstances of existence, whether good or bad.
An example of bad circumstances would be the Space Jockeys' ship crashing on LV-426.
I like this a lot, but I would include David making replicants of xenos - only to be killed by a real one himself
@@Abstrakt_Animations ooo, I like that! Like that scene where he’s trying to talk to one; that one would be the replicant he created-a replicant creating a replicant. But as he’s trying to communicate with it, the real one you mentioned comes up from behind him and tears him in half Bishop-style. Or something like that lol
@@mynameisjonboy Tearing him in half Bishop style would be Ridley’s best move since the first film
@@Abstrakt_Animations sadly, I have to agree with you
Fantastic ❤
Kroft thank you so much for your awesome videos x
Kroft, I think you’d like Scavengers Reign. It’s a fantastic animated show
Hi Kroft.
The only games that are classed as canon are only, Isolation & Colonial Marines.
Kroft, perhaps a video about the upcoming Noah Hawley TV series (2025) next? Have you heard any details newer than the interview he already gave?
While we're on the subject of Hawley - if anyone missed 'Legion', I highly recommend giving it a go. And, having done that, it will be evident as to why I am looking forward to the TV series he has written.
Great video! I thought a king xenomorph existed? Wasn't it introduced in one of the graphic hard back comics?
I like to think.. that the pathogen and the genetic manipulation is dynamic. From the original movie until present. It is possible there is way more we haven’t seen during screen time.
1.25 speed
Great video Kroft! Love the vidssssss.. Aliens Fire Tram Elite hs some good variants too
I need more information on the sedative chemicals the face huggers use, so we can develop a antidote
I have seen....no I studied every Alien and Predator movie. When the Aliens come I'll be ready to use the advanced methods of the Yautja to defeat them.
Mist is definitely a way to control moisture/environment
You are fucking great
personnally I believe the eggs on the lv426 spaceshit are its crew... (Scott never liked the "hive" organisation, because it was too similar with earth creatures)
Oriiented from the Engineers! Though the years are weird, but they are Allways!
5:48 where is this scene from?
Can I ask where you are from? I'm just curious. When I hear an accent, I can't keep myself from guessing.
10:35. I always thought “face hugger” can infest a host. The host would manifest the “alien”.
can u do a fallout vid?
Didn't the chestburster from Alien 3 originate from a Rottweiler? Thus the slightly more quadrupedal form?
Describing in detail something that doesnt exist 😆
What do you mean? Like stuff in movies isn't actually real? Wow you're a real scientist aren't ya! 🙄
@@qvalue9982 nah i get it. But its amusing nonetheless.
Pathetic take, but okay.
Go read a mf book
Aren't the eggs already exist in Prometheus?
But didn't the Engineers already create the Xenomporphs in the black goo form. I mean they must have already known what it would become when they developed it. Or maybe I'm wrong or looking too much into that🤷🏻♀️
We definitely need the Engineers origin story to understand 🤔
Well I do anyway.lol😂
I feel like all the creature from promethius are all one off creatures
Halloway effected with black goo then impregnates Shaw creating the trelabite
Trelabite then uses an engineer as a host
Then the Deacon is born
A xenomorph is birthed from a human being a host to the ovomorph
A Predalien is birthed from a predator being a host to the ovomorph
Lol....point being is the possibility of creatures is endless
What if an engineer got effected with the black gooooo
Then got his wife pregnant and gave birth to whatever
Then that thing used a predator for a host? What then?
Btw Kroft, you are loved
....I heard somewhere they were gonna introduce a King Alien........its has wings!
Gladiator 2 and alien are connected
The King is the biggest Xenomorph , look it up in Comics, and it ya read AVP you know they didnt just use them for hunts for younglings . THEY CREATED THEM
👽Kroft talks aka secureteam10 😊🎉
6min in. Thinking “hive mind”.
I'll only to know one thing....where they are.
Let's remember that Daniel's Xenomorphs are as dumb as fuck compared to Big Chap in Alien which means that he did not create them, just a subspecies of them. The spaceship found in Alien also appears to be very, very old.
Content is A+ but man that inflection is distracting
Great Video's. just recommand watching X1.25 speed, thank me later
How about a new name called kroft talks about alien.
Set the speed to 1.25 and thank me later…
Ur welcome 😉
God to hear you again
Hope Romulus wont be too woke and eventually detroy the entire franchise like hysterical women like to do
Sadly, I fear the same. 😔
🖤🩶
So basically:
"Just whatever"....
That's what I thought
why do people talk with this weird voice inflection?
Whenever kroft uploads, the world stops and I watch 🫡
Hala Madrid!!
