263: Alien Romulus

Welcome to the second of our shows looking at key franchise films from the Summer of 2024.  This episode we go all dark, scaring Graham along the way, as we discuss Alien Romulus.

The team of Graham, Jeff and Phil don their spacesuits and boldly go into foreboding places to talk in hushed tones about the latest Alien film. Amongst the aspects of the film they talk about:

  • The original plan Disney had to make this for their streaming service 
  • Is Fede Alvarez the right director for the job?
  • The controversial use of the likeness of an actor from the very first Alien film
  • The actor in the cast who impressed everyone in the review team
  • How Alien Romulus fits into the overall Alien series

Surprisingly, the reviewers (with minor carping from one of the team and I am sure you can guess who that pedantic person is) all enjoyed the film.  Sorry about that Phil’s brother!!! 

What did you think of Alien Romulus?  Please let us know.

Until the next time, see you At The Flicks
