Alien: Romulus (2024) - A Return to Horror or Just Another Space Tale

  • Summary

  • Is it possible for a new chapter in the Alien franchise to recapture the terror of the originals?

    In this episode of Rogue Reviews, we dive into Alien: Romulus (2024), the latest installment directed by Fede Álvarez, positioned between the 1979 classic Alien and its 1986 sequel Aliens.

    We share our thoughts on the film's premise, where a group of space colonists, played by a dynamic cast including Cailee Spaeny and David Johnson, encounter a derelict space station that awakens a familiar and terrifying threat.

    Gary and I debate the film's strengths and weaknesses, from its eerie atmosphere and intense score. We also explore the character dynamics, and how some of these elements echo the themes of the original films.

    Finally, we ask the ultimate question, does this film manage to revive the franchise's signature suspense and horror?
