It's been seven long years since we loyal acolytes of the xenomorph were haunted by those wicked biomechanical horrors, thanks to the most recent Hollywood entry of the revered sci-fi franchise, "Alien: Covenant."
Now director Fede Alvarez ("Evil Dead," "Don't Breathe") has teamed up with executive producer Sir Ridley Scott to bring restless fans "Alien: Romulus," which premieres on Aug. 16. The plot centers around a brave band of 20-something space colonizers who discover an abandoned space station and decide to investigate its dank innards. They disturb a nest of xenomorphs — nasty facehuggers, chestbursters and murderous alien adults.
