Major spoilers for 'Alien: Romulus' ahead. In the highly anticipated film, a group of interplanetary scavengers stumble upon a derelict space station and uncover disturbing experiments on the Xenomorph alien race. Directed by Fede Alvarez, the movie features a standout scene that left the crew unable to watch due to its graphic nature.
The scene involves a character named Kay, who, after injecting herself with a black serum derived from Xenomorphs to save her unborn child, gives birth to a grotesque monster known as the 'Offspring.' This hybrid creature grows rapidly, reaching over seven feet tall with elongated limbs and a secondary mouth. The Offspring returns to feed from Kay, showcasing the horrifying consequences of the serum's effects on her body.
Notably, the film opts for practical effects over CGI, with Romanian basketball player Robert Bobroczkyi portraying the Offspring. Alvarez commended Bobroczkyi's performance, highlighting his talent and on-screen presence.
The disturbing scene has sparked discussions among horror fans, with many speculating about potential sequels. Despite its controversial content, 'Alien: Romulus' has enjoyed a successful opening weekend, grossing $108 million worldwide.
