HP Lovecraft's novelisation of Alien (1979)

What if HP Lovecraft had been commissioned to write the movie novelisation instead of that other guy?
And he decided to add a unique angle of his own devising?

For amusement only. Hope someone gets a kick out of this.

That is actually a good read! Amazing how it added some interesting Lovecraftian tropes. Gives me a whole new appreciation for the phrase "Kane's son."

Google Docs will do it.

Ash would speak with an Italian accent and have a darker complexion. Jonesy has a less appropriate name.

Huh, what a coincidence. I've been recently binging some Lovecraft audiobooks. Among them was, of course, Mountains of Madness, and I again noticed how it served as a blueprint for so many modern "mankind journeys to the remote corners of the known world and discovers forbidden things about alien civilizations it has no business in" stories, including Alien. Now, I stumbled upon this thread. Thanks, I'll give it a read.
