An alien snarling into the camera in Alien: Romulus
The Big Picture In 2013, when Fede Álvarez reimagined the undead world first developed by Sam Raimi in 1981’s Evil Dead, he may have kept the title and some of the plot points, but he certainly made it his own - especially with the amount of blood used. The director is known for cranking the graphics up to an 11 in the majority of his projects, and even when they don’t include heaps of gore, they’re still overflowing with horror.
“Like Quentin said once, ‘I will reject your hypothesis.’ Because if you think about the first movie, most of the kills happen off-camera. You don't see them. You don't see a lot of death. They cut right away, but you know how they will go down. But Alien is so interesting; you rarely see the Xenomorph actually murdering someone . You see the inner mouth coming out—boom. Headshot, right? But then you don't really see it. You just really figure out a way to escape it.
“There are other monsters that you know exactly the way they kill. The Xenomorph is really tricky. I mean, I know it will do the inner mouth in your skull thing , that's for sure. But then there are other ways, and it's always better in your head. So, everybody has a different idea of what it is. All that said, I guess after so many movies, it got to a point that we probably have to show what the alien does to you , and we're probably doing it in this movie.
