It's disappointing how these Alien prequels shape the creature's creation as a man-made mutant. For me what made the alien so frightening to begin with is that it just is. It's simply just a frightening creature that naturally evolved somewhere in the galaxy and exists just to expand its species. Likewise, what makes that Space Jockey scene so eerie in the original is that it's an ancient ship that's been fossilized for thousands of years and having our human heroes come across this giant dead alien adds to the horror. Knowing that they're actually big human bodybuilders with suits on just makes them less interesting. I completely agree with this, my biggest problem too is that the xenomorphs turn out to be man made. |
