Creepy new Alien: Covenant clip showcases the back-burster

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

I swear with all of these clips and prologues and whatnot, we are all going to have seen most – if not all – of Ridley Scott's ALIEN: COVENANT before the film even hits the screens on May 19th.

But, whatever.

If you are like me and still cannot help but gobble up all the ALIEN-related shite you can find lying around, then I've got something pretty cool to show you. It is a new R-rated clip from the movie that shows the new "back-burster" creature about to do his dirty work on some cold and/or albino dude.

You can check out the clip below and, warning, it is a tiny, tad bit NSFW so put on some headphones or turn the volume on your speakers down a bit. Fair warning. Now enjoy the clip!
