Alien: Romulus director says his work on 2013's Evil Dead and Don't Breathe helped him bring to life the "true horror movie" he's always wanted to make

The Xenomorph in Alien: Romulus.

Since Alien: Romulus has been announced, we have been teased that it will return the beloved sci-fi franchise back to its horror roots. And judging by both the first reactions and our very own Alien: Romulus review, it's certainly 'mission complete'.

Set in-between the events of Ridley Scott's Alien and Aliens, the film follows a group of space scavengers as they encounter some familiar foes on what they believe to be an abandoned space station. As they delve further into the deserted outpost, more and more scares are creeping around each corner, with the film climaxing with an absolutely unhinged finale.
