“Alien: Romulus,” the latest installment in the legendary Alien franchise, reminds us why Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic still haunts our nightmares. Directed by Fede Álvarez, known for his skillful handling of horror in films like “Evil Dead” (2013) and “Don’t Breathe” (2016), “Romulus” treads the line between homage and originality.
