The Surprising Connections Between ALIEN: ROMULUS and THE LAST OF US
When contemplating the Alien movie series and The Last of Us games and TV show, it’s hard to find any common ground, right? After all, one is an intense, post-apocalyptic odyssey featuring fungus-infected people, while the other is… well, The Last of Us. A bit of humor there! Nonetheless, both share the genre of creature horror with a touch of sci-fi, but beyond that, comparisons might be few. However, if you’re a filmmaker like Fede Alvarez, you may have drawn inspiration from one to create the other. As Alvarez himself admitted, The Last of Us: Part II did indeed inspire Alien: Romulus.
