We're still two months away from seeing what director Fede Álvarez has in store when he revives a classic horror franchise with Alien: Romulus-and judging by the latest trailer, it's going to be scary good.
It takes place between the events of 1979 Alien and of 1986 Aliens, Romulus is set to be a standalone story featuring the terrifying Xenomorph creatures that became iconic in the 1980s. After a group of space-faring colonists stumble upon an empty space station, the group soon realizes they are not alone and learns exactly why the space station is now “abandoned” as its crew fell victim to alien life forms whose sole purpose is to kill and reproduce (and not in the sexy way).
Now finding themselves fighting for their lives and looking for a way to get away from the space station, the colonists are on the run from face-lovers and Xenomorphs who tend to leave no witnesses at the scene of their crime. Somehow they would arrive.
Watch its trailer Alien: Romulus below and let us know if you'll be checking it out when it hits theaters on August 16th.
