In 1979 Ridley Scott directed a movie where a 2 minute scene consisting of a man wandering around in a dark vent with a fire for a light source until a man in a rubber costume tries to give him a hug.
This scene was more terrifying than any 2017 movie with a CGI alien doing cartwheels down the hallways of a space ship or head butting a cockpit could ever possibly hope to be.
How the mighty have fallen.

I don't really consider Covenant to be a horror film.

All this is a nightmare, Covenant never happened, wake the fuck up!

Not a horror film really -- more of a gross out
It kinda just felt like a giant meta-story/tribute to H.R. Giger via David being a weirdo that makes weird things.

Watching Covenant reminded me of visiting my Dementia ridden grandfather. I want to see him, but i every time i do it tarnishes my memory of him when i see how fucked up he is now. Im also very worried about Bladerunner 2, how much input is he having in that?
Someone could have made a perfect sequel and it still wouldn't be scary because they aren't scary anymore and never will be
>try to over explain minuscule details from an 80s movie
>surprised when it all falls apart
2 whole moves to explain what an HR Geigar statue is and how the xenomorphs came to exist, which was never important to begin with.
Its an ALIEN life form. That's literally the entire and only point of the film. Maybe its why the film is called "Alien"
I'm done with this deep lore garbage. This movie was more of a wiki page than an actual movie

i liked the part where the robots played the recorder it was funni
also when they kissed haha lol

I remember this being the only scene in the movie that actually startled me, I felt genuinely anxious all throughout the scene.
Inversely, I can't imagine myself ever feeling the same way if I ever were to watch Covenant. The entire movie seems so boring and unnecessary. I don't see the point in it, to be honest. The original Alien was just a small horror movie set in space about a monster killing people. I don't give a fuck about his origin and what led to it.
For me, the Alien was just an alien and that's it. I don't need to know anything else.

Although it doesn't take a genius to figure out, I'm banking you made these points because you just watched half in the bag.
