Fede Álvarez's signature stomach-churning violence and deeply dark attitude are perfectly suited to Alien: Romulus.
There's no sign of Ripley in this curious prequel, which is set between Alien and its 1986 sequel Aliens .
Cailee Spaeny stars as Rain, an indentured worker on a Weyland -Yutani space colony, where disease and industrial accidents have made her and her synthetic "brother" Andy .
The first half of this prequel blends the signatures of Álvarez 's horror films with the well-established lore of the Alien movies.
The sound team, led by Lee Gilmore , owes me a good night's sleep after the hellish sounds echo through my skull.
Unfortunately, the filmmakers fumble this marvelous build-up with a climax that is a sloppy burst of fan service.
Alien: Romulus won't be sunk by its flimsy final act, but some of the thrill is lost amid the clutter of callbacks.
Still, this is a movie that demands to be seen in theaters, where the volume can gobble you up like so many alien maws.
