Alien: Romulus to be released theatrically on Aug. 16, 2024

The Purvis-burster at the end of Resurrection had a bit of Raimi in it.~

[[cancerblack]]

It's really not like Raimi's at all.

Just 2-3 winks to the visual style like the one flying weapon shot etc.

[Necronomicon II]

It's how to do a remake right 101

[Stitch]

It's much more violent and much less slapstick than Raimi. It's basically a semi-remake of the original The Evil Dead but on a bigger budget, so it's very violent and gory.

[Kane's other son]

It's well made. My only problem with it was that the script was perfunctory and didn't have much depth or subtext. I'm hoping he does more with Alien than set pieces.

[Necronomicon II]

I think many just want a great scary movie with credible, relatable characters you care about. And Isolation save stations. 🥹

[Whiskeybrewer]

YYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

[Kradan]

And Isolation save stations. 🥹

Noisemakers or bust

[nanison]

C'mon guys, I'm excited as well but this is not going to be great. Don't breath and evil dead are well made films but not classics. It's going to be super bloody and gory but tell me how bloody and gory was alien or aliens? It is all about the suspense, the anticipation and the great characters.
We will see.

[Kradan]

I mean, Kane's death was pretty graphic

And Isolation save stations. 🥹

Noisemakers or bust

You can't forget about the white christmas-lights, commodore 64 computer annex with a rotating chair.

[Wweyland]

A bit unreal that we have gotten two Predator movies since the last Alien movie. But a year will pass quickly!

Nobody's saying Evil Dead (2013) is a classic, just that it's competent and more fun than it has any right to be.

Nobody's talking about Don't Breathe at all, and rightly so imo.

[SiL]

I thought Don't Breathe was plenty tense. Ending was a let-down, but it definitely got the blood pumping.

I'm looking forward to a simple, unpretentious scary movie. I think Fede can deliver.

[Necronomicon II]

I pulled up Evil Dead for his penchant for in-camera FX, not to imply that it will have the same level of gore. I have no idea about that. Two very different properties, and as as Sil said if it laser focuses on tense, unpretentious set ups Fede can definitely nail that.
