Summary

It's been a lean 38 years if you're an Alien film franchise fan. From the disappointment of Alien 3 to the bamboozling direction Ridley Scott chose with the last two films, it's fair to say no old-school fan has been especially happy. So the question becomes, can Fede Alvarez do what many others before him could not and deliver a genuinely good Alien sequel? Paul and Wayne certainly hope so, and they were front and centre very early in this film's release to bring you their view on whether this is the beginning of a new dawn for the Alien franchise or if it is just more of the same hope-sucking drivel? Find out whether you should be purchasing your ticket to Alien: Romulus, as The Countdown continues...
