When you hear the word "alien" about the film series started by Ridley Scott in 1978, you probably think of a specific kind of foreign: Xenomorph. Ultra-violent extraterrestrial predator with two mouths and acid for blood is one of the most iconic creatures in cinema history, thanks to the timeless design of the legendary HR Giger. While there have been many different variants of Xenomorph over the years, each main film in the franchise has a representative of the species in its center - except for "Prometheus", the only film in the series not to be named "foreign".

"Alien: Earth" It follows that trend with a lot of time on the xenomorphic screen, but the FX show also expands the title of "foreign" over that unique species. The magin, the Vayland-Antani ship crashed in the territory of the fornication at the beginning of the show, actually carries it Five different types of foreign: Xenomorph, a kind of giant flying bug that forms nettle and releasing powerful acid, giant plant, type of leeches that suck blood and a small eyeball that can take over and control other life forms.

Through the first half of the show, it is still the xenomorph that receives in the spotlight, but in episode 5, "In space, no one ...", "We look at some of the other species in more detail, as well as through retrospectives to their escape to the ship on the ship. The magin. And here's something: in this example, Xenomorph is not actually the most dangerous alien. That honor belongs to the true Starwar of "Alien: Earth" - that densely little eyeball.

The Albanian and Fear Fear of the Xenomorph and both come from its status as the ultimate predator - a creature that represents a little more than hunger, violence and cruel power. It is a perfectly beautiful field for film for monsters, especially when the circumstances around the creature are so mysterious. The franchisee has spent decades decoded and pieces of xenomorphic orum, but none of it has ever changed an alien to another thing from what it has always been.

Guy from eyeballs, on the show as "kind 64", it seems to be completely different. There are suggestions earlier in the show that it can possess greater intelligence, but episode 5 shows this in action through the elegant plan of the creature to escape the captivity of the magin. Although Facehuggers are released for sabotage, species 64 make their own escape, and it does so in a way that delivers its real smartphones.

While the science officer Chibuzo (Karen Aldridge) conducts tests of one of the other - the blood parasites - the man from the eyeballs carefully. One of the parasites manages to climb to the top of the tank and unlock the opening inside, suggesting that species also possess quite advanced intelligence. But what is more freaky is that vision 64 sees this, recognizes it as a net good for itself and actively distracts Chibuzo, so that the parasite can successfully escape and contaminate its food and water. The ability to not only see an external circumstance as specifically favorable, but then to solve a way to help it indirectly, is above the level of judgment we have seen from Xenomorphs, and it makes species 64 very, very dangerous.

If this was an original IP, you can assume after episode 5 that xenomorph is more than Rouge, which covers the show Real An alien threat: Mr -Oqua apple. Okay, maybe just I I would think that, but because this is a "foreign" franchise, that thought never had passed me in mind. You don't do a Terminator show For a new kind of robot that is not Terminator. Fans appear to see what they know, so it is likely that species 64 will remain more than a background threat during the rest of the season.

That said, here there is a ton of potential. It is interesting to see more types of parasites in "Alien: Earth", each of which applies in a different way. Parasites of blood, xenomorphs and species 64 All require other organisms to progress, and makes you wonder what is the unusual patterns of Valeland-Antani for creatures.

As for the boy of the eyeball, we still know very little about the volume of his abilities. In the human body, it often acted like zombies, but can he learn to imitate human speech? Can I hide more efficient and masked as one of us? Hopefully, "Alien: Earth" will make some more time to explore these questions along with your regularly scheduled Xenomorphic Shenanigans.
