Trivia
Some of the CCTV images Ashlin cycles through are copied from shots we see of the Nostromo in the original 1979 film, before the crew gets woken up.

Quotes
Ashlin: I want to start prepping the driller. Where's the captain?
Conrad: Captain Barker is still in short-term cryostasis.
Ashlin: Fine. Let him sleep a bit. What about Grayson? Why's he letting you do the piloting, the lazy shit?
Conrad: Pilot Grayson has been in the cargo bay for the last three days.
Ashlin: What? What's he doing in there?
Conrad: Unable to elaborate due to privacy policy.
Ashlin: You're useless, Conrad. I'm going down there. If he's shacked up with his Chinese cartoons again, I'm going to fucking lose it, I swear.

Pure Dedication and Homage

You get vibes from Lily C. A. T. (1987) and Cowboy Bebop's (1999) "Toys In The Attic" space-horror episode all while paying homage to Ridley Scott's original Alien. A love for retro-style animation and the Alien franchise is what this trio has in common - it's a really enjoyable 15 minutes which has been several years in the making!

The moments of silence in space and the little details like "The Fly" poster bring this short movie just over the edge. The Alien-style atmosphere is more palpable in this short production than in the entirety of Alien 3 (1992).

This needs a mini-series, it's that good!
