If you look atEvil Dead, it is exactly the same ending.
An abomination rises from hell.
It is actually similar.
In Alien: Romulus, a crew of space explorers lands on a distant, uncharted planet, only to uncover a horrifying secret lurking beneath the surface. As they delve deeper into the alien environment, they encounter deadly creatures and ancient ruins that hint at a terrifying history. The team’s survival becomes a desperate battle against the relentless xenomorphs, forcing them to rely on their wits and technology to escape the nightmarish world.
I would love to see a meme of The Abomination and The Offspring sharing a coffee and a cigarette.
They’re very similar creatures and approached in a quite similar way technically.
The ending, in his mind, also played into the escalating nature of the 1986 classic.
Alien: Romulusis now playing in theaters.
