The inciting incident leads to the lead character having a goal.

You set the story up as if the police officer is the lead character and killing the alien is the inciting incident.

But I have no idea what the lead character's goal is.

Agreed with what Robb Ross said.

Some things in this logline are not very clear. What is the inciting incident? Clearly the police officer killing the alien isn't. Also when you say many earthlings are infested by another? Do you mean that they are infested by the same alien? It controls multiple people?

Also "holding a grudge" against the cop for killing their loved ones isn't a cinematic goal that our lead (the cops son?) will strive for. What does your protagonist do for the 2nd and 3rd act of the film? Or is this a series?
