"Alien: Covenant" Spoilers - New Film Will Outdo "Prometheus"
Viewers with a preference for the horror genre would definitely be delighted in the new offering from Ridley Scott. According to "Alien: Covenant" spoilers, the new movie would definitely outdo its predecessor.
"Once it starts and the ball starts rolling, it doesn't let up," explains Fassbender. "It's really gonna bring chills to the cinema."
In part, this could be due to the fact that it is already a sequel, according to "Alien: Covenant" spoilers. While "Prometheus" had its share of scares, the film was more exploratory in tone. The build up for what's coming is controlled, perhaps to give viewers the chance to digest the new plot.
