I’m back for my final UFOctober with CREATURE. While William Malone’s ALIEN rip-off isn’t a Roger Corman production, I saw fit to pay reverence to the King of B-movies by looking at how it bears all the hallmarks of a Corman film with the filmmaker’s longstanding legacy.

I return once again to Neon Splatter, for another UFOctober entry!

ALIEN 3 has been written about extensively over the years so I tried to find a new angle to approach the film as a bit of an ode to the way films used to “end” with what is arguably the series most hopeful entry.

So...hear me out?
