Both of these were released I would say sometimes after 2011?

First one is a movie. I only remember the beginning and the end. The beginning a group of soldiers enter abandoned building and then they are killed one by one by invisible aliens. At the end a group of soldiers land on top of something, a building or a spaceship and they get into a big gun fight with the aliens while attempting to enter it: a big chamber and they have to destroy or activate a machine or something to save the world. There is a woman scientist or soldier and she was the only one who knew how to do it.

Second one is either a TV series that didn't do well and was canceled after a handful of episodes or it was one of those TV miniseries or maybe even a web only series, both of them left the ending open for a 2nd season/2nd miniseries, but due to poor rating it was not to be.

I only remember the aliens come to earth and adopt humans and put them into cocooned hives like you see in the Matrix movies, 100s to 1000s of them, where the humans are all connected by tubes into their bodies. but the aliens were using them for food.

One of the episodes had a gunfight between humans and aliens in a trash landfill or a auto junkyard.

I don't remember who are the actors/actresses in both programs but I do remember they were well known names at the time these 2 shows came out.

Thank you.

Thought perhaps "V" was the tv series but it had 2 seasons, 2009-2011.
I've been searching through IMDB. You can customize lists to search like"Cancelled AlienTv series" and such.

From IMDB: Has definite junkyard battle with aliens but is a movie, 2010.

The Plot looks Pretty Familiar........:)

Yes, that's the one, Reaper. Thank you.

I am searching for the 2nd one on IMDB under TV series or Mini-Series, Sci-Fi, English, between 2010-2016, no luck so far. Too many results.

It also wasn't Alien Opponent.
