How Fede Álvarez's new installment fits into the storied franchise which began with Ridley Scott's 1979 'Alien.'
The question of whether life exists elsewhere in the universe is a big one for humanity. But if the discovery of, the franchise has been instilling a deep-seated fear in viewers of predatory endoparasitoid extraterrestrials that go bump in space.
"We went to crazy extents to make sure that things were in canon and we were not contradicting or messing , I would say, any of ," Álvarez told."It's just something very special when you love certain movies and then a movie comes in and makes nods to them and you feel you're the only person in the theater who must be getting this reference. That's what it feels like. It's really tailor-made for you.
According to Rook, the Romulus scientists were attempting to turn the black goo into a miracle cure of sorts that could"upgrade" humans and, naturally, create better workers for Weyland-Yutani. However, things went horribly wrong when Big Chap turned out to still be alive, massacred the crew, laid Facehugger eggs in the ship, and created a hive of Xenomorphs.
The so-called cure also doesn't work as it was supposedly intended to, as is evidenced by the grotesque Xenomorph-human hybrid that emerges from Rain's pregnant friend Kay after she injects herself with the black goo specimen to try to heal her Xenomorph injuries.
