The Alien franchise rolls on with its latest instalment, this time as a standalone interquel that takes place in between the events of Alien and Aliens, when young space colonists encounter a xenomorph, while scavenging on an abandoned space station. Helmed by Fede Alvarez, it’s a highly anticipated movie especially following the (relative) disappointments of Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. We discuss if it’s lived up to the hype, and then in Take Two, cover some of our favourite on-screen extraterrestrials, before closing off with a very old track, You Are My Lucky Star on The B-Side.
