Watching the Alien series of films is a bit like riding a roller-coaster; the franchise has had its ups and downs, then occasionally you may get put through a loop-the-loop and the little kid in front of you spews up his pizza that he had just before getting on the ride and you have to spend the rest of the day wearing clothes that stink of body odour and vomit… Maybe it’s just like the first part of that analogy.

Alien: Covenant sees a rebirth of the franchises as a spaceship is inundated with extra-terrestrial parasites.

Whilst you may not have all your fears allayed by this sequence, it still suggests good things for the future of the Alien franchise.

At the very least, it can’t be worse than Resurrection. Right? RIGHT!?

Alien: Covenant is out later this year!
